Be sure to check out the other tabs with more information about this resource. There is a demo video under the "How Does It Work" tab.

This is a database for faculty to use to find Open Educational Resources (OER) to use within their courses, either as a supplement or replacement to a textbook. There are also lower cost textbooks that are available for purchase and perpetual licensing within this database. The eLearning team has been working with the library on acquiring this resource. The goal is to encourage adoption of OER materials or other low cost resources that could reduce some students’ textbooks costs where possible.

To demonstrate a selection of what is available, the links below point to search results with keywords related to broad areas within departments.

The Gateway Library and eLearning departments are working together to develop best practices and tutorials for use. Please contact either Library Director, Elizabeth Hartlaub or Senior Instructional Designer, Steve McGuire for questions or more information.
