Embrace open education with Open Education Week and the Library's guide to Open Educational Resources.
Open Education Week (2 -6 March) aims to celebrate the global open education movement. Open education is about sharing knowledge and resources, upon which new knowledge and skills can be built.
Open educational resources (OER) provide affordable learning resources for students which they can continue to access throughout their life-long learning. See https://library.acu.edu.au/open-access/common-good
Using OER resources means you can tailor the resource to the needs of your students.
To help you make OER choices we have implemented Faculty Select which combines searches of Open Textbook Library, OAPEN Library and Open SUNY textbooks to help you locate OER resources.

Contributing your own OER’s allows you to contribute to a growing movement and to share your own knowledge in a different way. You can learn how to do this at https://www.openeducationweek.org/resources/learning-to-reuse-open-educational-resources
