Who are we?
4. • UNESCO definition:
Open Educational Resources are
teaching, learning or research materials
that are in the public domain or released
with an intellectual property license that
allows for free use, adaptation, and
distribution.
What are OER?
5. • Complementary to Open Access, MOOCs and
Research Data Management
• All resources can sit within same platform
(institutional repository)
• Librarian has a role with all of these open
educational trends
• We can lead by example – share our own
stuff!
How do OER fit in with the open
movement?
6. Why share Information Literacy
resources and do you already?

16. • The platform:
• Is it feasible to share resources by uploading materials to
repositories such as Jorum, Merlot? Links or deposit?
• How should resources by organised? By subject, by institution or
by country?
• Training and professional development
• What skills do you need ?
• What sort of training and workshops would be useful?
• Networks for sharing
• Who do you want to share with? Subject? Sector? Country?
• How can we facilitate sharing through an online space?
Where and how to share?
17. • In groups of 4 or 5
• Each group to start by focusing on one topic
• Note down your thoughts and nominate a
spokesperson to report back
How can we make this happen?
18. • What are OERs and are there any specific issues
associated with using CC licences?
• What type of IL resources are most useful? Slides,
lesson plans, worksheets, reading lists?
• How should IL resources be catalogued and
organised?
• How can IFLA and UNESCO support sharing?
• Please ask us more…..
Questions for the panel
Notes de l'éditeur
Existing model requires people to upload material into a central repository. Looking at possibilities to ‘harvest’ content from a variety of sources around the world.We know there are lots of OER repositories e.g. Jorum, Merlot, Primo, OER Commons etc.Need to identify all the places that people currently use to share their OERs to join this upIs there some way we can build a collection of OERs about information literacy?Previous projects: BRUM, CaRILLO, previous LILAC symposium in 2008.
Brain storm for 5 minutes in pairsReport back in 5 minutesIs it always a good thing to share?Three reasons why it’s goodThree problems or challenges sharing presents
Slides 7-12 – 5 minutes but also make a handout with some background info
Just as the Committee was getting off the ground, the HEA called to see if we wanted to run a project.2 months timescale to lead on from current work and DELILA project.Aim was to internationalise promotion of OERWe used several mailing lists to promote project and ask for participation. We had already started working with UNESCO in 2012 on IL OER and therefore we utilised their WSIS platform for the project. We had 3 simple activities for participants, upload a link to resources, take part in discussions and show how you would re-use a resource.

Front page of IL community where our project was placed.
We were really lucky in meeting all our objectives in just over a month.Over 30 members from over 10 different countriesLots of discussions and resources postedWe even had Amazon vouchers to give away as part of the budget.As JISC/HEA specified outputs we now have a report, case study and strategy. We also ran a post-project survey for participants on how they found using the WSIS platform and we’ve shared this with UNESCO
Held a CoPILOT day at Birmingham for further in-depth discussions with respondents and other interested librarians.We also knew from a previous symposium at LILAC that librarians really wanted a CoP to discuss and share ideas.The main aim/outcome of this meeting was to form a committee with clear remit to support, primarily but not exclusively, UK librarians in sharing their teaching resources.Now have 10 committee members.Mailing list has over 250 members from all over the worldWiki has several editors uploading useful links and sharing information.JISC Good Intentions report (2008) highlighted importance of CoP – same curricula encourages sharingLibrarians in UK with interest in IL have LILAC and CSG-Information Literacy GroupOther existing groups in US, Ireland etc.Use WSIS Knowledge Communities platformCoPILOT Committee provide support
