Locating Open Educational Resources for Courses

Interested in learning about textbooks and other course materials you and your students can access for free? Come to Fogler Library’s Open Educational Resources workshop, where you can learn more about where to find these types of resources and can work with your subject-area librarian to find resources for the courses you teach or will be teaching.

Date and Location: December 1 from 10-11 AM on Zoom (the Zoom link will be sent to registrants before the meeting)

You can register to attend here. Please contact Amber Gray (amber.gray@maine.edu) if you have questions.


Featured Resource: Guide to Altmetrics

Altmetrics is the use of alternative, or nontraditional, measurements to better understand the extent of a work’s scholarly impact. Altmetrics serve as a complement to traditional metrics (e.g., citation counts) by incorporating statistics regarding usage, capture, and mentions of scholarly works in online environments.
