Many traditional science textbooks from major publishers are prohibitively expensive and contain more material than many instructors can cover. OERs lower the cost of student participation in science and allow for customization by other educators who want to use them in their own classroom. Botany is one such area of the life sciences with few OERs developed. We aimed to create a new OER (Biology...

People, Not Platforms: How Librarians can help Navigate the "Gray Spaces" of Sustainable OER

Open education often gets framed as a technology problem. Where should OER live? In fact, as we as a CMC library team started planning for our recent grant, our first thoughts were about platforms, metadata standards, and software. We’re conditioned to think that way from years of cataloging and classifying information. If you find yourself asking, what platform should we build? Or, how can we...
