Abstract or Description

Presented online for the Georgia Libraries Conference.

Program

SpringShare’s LibGuides provides an effective platform for hosting and creating OER materials. LibGuides’ flexibility and ease of use allows faculty and librarians the ability to quickly adopt, adapt, and deliver OER content to students. This panel will highlight OER projects from two state institutions and one private institution utilizing LibGuides to meet OER needs, as well as meeting Affordable Learning Georgia (ALG) grant compliance. Librarians will discuss the challenges and benefits of the platform, and participants will leave with several ideas on how to leverage LibGuides for OER development and hosting at their institutions.
