Jan. 20th Coffee Chat
by Joanne McKenzie-Hicks 12 Jan '21

12 Jan '21

Hello Ms. Brin, I am a Library Technology Student at SAIT currently enjoying a practicum with Jessica Norman at the SAIT Reg Erhardt Library. I am helping Jessica plan for OE Week at SAIT and I have registered for the Coffee Chat next week. Attending your Coffee Chat as an observer will help me learn more about the Canadaoer community and OE Week. I thought as I've never appeared on a Canadaoer attendee list in the past that an introduction may be in order. I'm looking forward to the event next week! Best regards, Joanne McKenzie-Hicks Student, Library Information Technology Southern Alberta Institute of Technology Pronouns - She/Her

Update on Vretta's printing of OpenStax books
by Arianna Cheveldave 09 Dec '20

09 Dec '20

This message is sent on behalf of Lauri Aesoph. Dear colleagues: It's been more than a year since Toronto-based Vretta agreed to be the Canadian distributor for OpenStax hardcover textbooks<https://bccampus.ca/2020/04/28/hard-back-openstax-books-come-to-canada/>, two years after BCcampus approached OpenStax about providing this service as an option. Since then, BCcampus and Campus Manitoba have met with Vretta regularly to gauge response to this opportunity and discuss service finetuning that best fit need. Adjustments were made throughout the pandemic to ensure that printed OpenStax textbooks continued to be available. With the January term around the corner, Vretta is ready to receive textbook orders and answer questions as it and its collaborators—BCcampus and Campus Manitoba—look to improve access to their OpenStax inventory of hardback books. Details regarding service improvements will be shared in 2021. In the meantime, questions regarding this service can be directed to Vretta Account Manager, Shoeb Mozammel, at shoeb.mozammel(a)vretta.com. Regards, Lauri Aesoph Manager, Open Education, BCcampus

OE-specific positions in Canada
by Krysta McNutt 04 Dec '20

04 Dec '20

Hello everyone, I’m hoping to connect with individuals in Canada who hold a role that is specifically dedicated to open education. My role at my institution is dedicated to OE from within our Centre for Teaching and Learning. I would love to get insight on how other institutions are positioning OE roles and what is working well/not well, barriers, etc. I hope you are all winding down for the holiday season soon! Thank you so much.

Dear colleagues, As publishers provide students and faculty with temporary free access to learning materials during the COVID-19 crisis, concerns have been raised about access and time limitations associated with the offers.

Please share with anyone who may find this helpful.
