Open Illinois HubThe Open Illinois Hub facilitates the use of Open Educational Resources (OER) and supports training, advocacy, and coordination of cooperative efforts for the benefit of members of the Consortium of Academic and Research Libraries in Illinois (CARLI), and other Illinois stakeholders. This centralized repository provides materials helpful to academic and research institutions in developing OER and advocating for adoption of OER on their campuses to reduce students' costs.
The Open Illinois Hub is a customized, branded resource on OER Commons where our network of users can create and share their locally created open educational resources and collections, have an institutional presence, or work collaboratively, and share news and events associated with a project or organization.
By combining resources from many CARLI member institutions into a seamless environment, faculty, staff, students, and the public are able to search across Illinois institutions and collections.
