In Their Own Words: Working with Faculty to Champion Affordable Learning at Your Campus

Raising and maintaining campus awareness about the pedagogical and financial benefits of open educational resources can sometimes feel like running a marathon. Finding partners to aid efforts is key as is having a robust and creative outreach campaign. The presenter will discuss how libraries can engage faculty to help spread the word, influence potential adopters, and build community, taking your OER initiatives to the next level. Examples from one library’s faculty incentivization project, Open Education Week events, and the #OER4Covid initiative will be shared.
