Today’s Open Education Week focus at the OER Research Hub is on Librarians.

The OER Research Hub has been working over the last few months with members of the Co-PILOT project (which promotes “digital and information literacy” open resources for use in Higher Education) to help understand more about librarians’ use and promotion of online resources. As part of our Open Access Week promotion in October 2013, the OER Research Hub, in collaboration with Co-Pilot launched a questionnaire to which 312 people responded (including 219 Librarians).

As Librarians play a key role in helping people find out about, and access, all kinds of resources, we would like to bring them back into the spotlight by, again, highlighting OERRH researcher Beck Pitt’s analysis of some of those survey findings. See Survey Results: Librarians and OER.
