Open Education Resources: Collecting, Promoting, And Managing Oer In An Institutional Repository, Sarah Beaubien
Digital Commons Great Lakes User Group Annual Meeting
Open Education Resources (OER) are digital materials used for educational purposes that are intentionally made available to the public. An increasing number of university faculty create and use such resources in their teaching.

We initially identified 10 departments/units on campus that produced abundant scholarly works. These departments and faculty were targeted for a scan for works in the Web of Knowledge. When results were revealed, we narrowed the field to four units. The works …
