The Open Oregon Resource page is a unique list of known OER adoptions at Oregon's community colleges.

Due to the recentness of data collection, the study also documents authors’ use of the ResearchGate platform to share research. The presentation will prompt discussion regarding repositories, discoverability outside of the academy, and copyright awareness among faculty.

In 2013, after nearly two decades of operating in a distributed legacy Integrated Library System (ILS) environment on local servers, the Orbis Cascade Alliance, a consortium of public and private academic libraries in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho, began a two-year-long process to migrate its 37 members to a shared implementation of Ex Libris's cloud-based Alma library management system (LMS) and Primo discovery interface.
