OER Champions: How Your Library Can Support Lifelong Learners
Students and patrons are increasingly unable to afford the high cost of educational and training material. Open educational resources (OER), which have grown exponentially over the last 10 years, can help. Want to see the types of resources that are available and learn how public libraries can leverage them?
Join us for the latest installment of our free, 30-minute Open Access Master Class.
Together, we will:
- Explore what OER is and how you can find it
- Identify educational materials that can meet the needs of your community
- Uncover how CloudSource—the OA-forward discovery platform from SirsiDynix— is changing how you discover and use open educational resources
Public libraries serve patrons with different levels of comfort with research methods and discovery tools. Set them up for success by providing the quality, open access resources they need where and when they need them—with no login or authentication needed. Register today.
