Hello all, May I ask you to promote BCOEL's March 6<https://bcoel.ca/events/oeweek-event-registration/>th<https://bcoel.ca/events/oeweek-event-registration/> event<https://bcoel.ca/events/oeweek-event-registration/> at your home institutions?

Brian Deer variants at BC universities
by BC Open Education Librarians Steering Committee 30 Jan '25

30 Jan '25

Hi, strangers! I've got a question that I think is particularly suited for the wisdom of this group. As some of y'all may know, OER Commons is run by my organization, ISKME. ISKME also sets up and helps maintain microsites (rebranded, repopulated, and customized OER Commons libraries) to other organizations. This year, we're working with the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE) to set one up for them. In a recent meeting, one of the librarians (a member of the Mohawk nation) brought up the possibility of incorporating something Brian Deer-like into the taxonomy, as they'd heard about it while working with the librarians at the College of the Muscogee Nation, but they didn't have a lot of movement on it at the time. While I know a bit about it, it's a bit outside of my specialty. I know that UBC, KPU and SFU all have their own implementations of it, and I was wondering if anyone in the group might be able to suggest someone at those libraries who could I could put in touch the librarian at OSRHE? Bonus points if they also have experience with OER! Thanks kindly, Peter Musser (he/him) Head of Library Services | OER Commons <https://www.oercommons.org> Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education

BCOEL: Current OER Week results
by BC Open Education Librarians Steering Committee 18 Dec '24

18 Dec '24

Good morning, all Hope you're having a great midweek! This is just a quick update re: the current OER week preference from the wider listserv. We've had 7 responses so far, but the 'OER and student success in a time of enrolment decline' option is taking a substantial early lead! There are tumbleweeds flying through the inspiration and ideas side of my brain right now, but with a good break I'm hopeful that something will spark between now and our next meeting! Perhaps we can all consider this topic (and potential speakers, if we go in that direction) over the next few weeks and chat more in January! Hope you all have a terrific and restful holiday season and looking forward to seeing you all again in 2025!
