Hi there everyone,
If you have created any OER, you may be interested in participating in the Creative Commons call for submissions (information follows):
>From Creative Commons:
Since 2014, CC has published an annual State of the Commons report that tracks the growth of CC-licensed content on the web. Last year, we reported a milestone of 1 billion CC-licensed works in the commons . This year, we are shifting our reporting focus to align with our new strategy .
We are opening a public call for submissions of commons content, its creators, and the creative uses that have resulted.
The submission form is below and asks for the relevant details we need to start visualizing an impactful statistic tied to real use. Strong submissions include all three features of the Creative Commons story: 1) the creator/entity and the choice to openly license, 2) the user and the act of adapting and remixing, and 3) the resulting positive impact for a broader public.

Hello BCOEL,
Hope you are all doing well.
Just a note of hi and to invite you all to come to the ETUG and our "Little (work) shop of Horrors: Tales of Fails and Edteck Experiments" hosted at the Centre for Digital Media.
Here's some details: https://etug.ca/tag/fall-workshop-2016/
As you know, it will be fun and informative and would not be the same without you there. (Yes, come cheer Rosario on in her lightning talk!)
Oh here's a nifty poster you will just love to put up in the library: / https://etug.ca/2016/10/12/etug-fall-2016-promo-poster/
Thank you and see you soon,

Hello CCCOER Advisory,
Well, we're finally doing it! I'm being asked to provide some samples of OER Librarian / Coordinator / Manager / <insert title here> job descriptions and/or justifications for a dedicated position.
If anyone has a job description or any sort of useful documentation that was successful at your institution to share, I'd greatly appreciate it. I can compile responses and post back, if this would be helpful to others.
Thank you!

Join us for an interactive session of playbook license scenarios where you can test your knowledge of the allowed OER re-use based on license type.

Dear OER Community —
In June, the national community college reform network Achieving the Dream (ATD) announced the largest initiative of its kind to develop degree programs using high quality open educational resources (OER).

Join us and invite your colleagues for an interactive webinar to hear early lessons learned including start-up considerations by participants of the ATD OER Degree program. Find out more about how your college’s OER efforts can benefit from the findings and resources being developed by this program. When: Wednesday, October 19, 10amPST/1pmEST
Featured Speakers:
* Richard Sebastian, Director of OER Degrees, Achieving the Dream
