OER planning 101 - BRUCE SCHNEIDER & NICHOLE KARPEL, eCampus News

From students to faculty to administrators, the benefits of OER can help offset the rising costs of traditional textbooks.

There are steps and considerations that can make OER conversion a project worth pursuing. https://www.ecampusnews.com/2018/09/17/oer-planning-101/
