Thanks, Debra. I'm glad that you think it's worthwhile. Can you (or anyone else) suggest how/if we (BCcampus) can/should incorporate this resource into our collection or website? Is there anything anyone would like me to ask the World Bank presenter when I email her tomorrow?

During this event, I had the opportunity to listen to a speaker from the World Bank talk about their open access policy and Open Knowledge Repository ( [ https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/ | https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/ ] ) which houses over 23,000 books, journal articles, working papers, and other resources on economic development around the world. I asked the speaker if she was aware of any post-secondary institutions using this collection; she didn't know. Are any of you aware of or using these resources?
