Sacred Heart University’s Open Educational Resources (OER) Task Force, an entity composed of the Office of the Provost, the Office of Digital Learning (ODL), Sacred Heart University Library, and faculty from across campus, has worked for the past two years to integrate OER into the educational culture of the university.

All too often they do not have access to high quality evidence about community views. We therefore, conducted a large and representative population-based survey in Australia to …
