[Bcoel] World Bank: Open Knowledge Repository

[Lauri Aesoph]

Hi Everyone, 

Amanda and I attended the Creative Commons Global Summit last week in Toronto. During this event, I had the opportunity to listen to a speaker from the World Bank talk about their open access policy and Open Knowledge Repository ( [ https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/ | https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/ ] ) which houses over 23,000 books, journal articles, working papers, and other resources on economic development around the world. I asked the speaker if she was aware of any post-secondary institutions using this collection; she didn't know. 

Are any of you aware of or using these resources? 

Regards, 
Lauri
