A reminder that if there are URL's of OER that you think may disappear due to various world events, go throw those URL's into @archive.org's Wayback Machine at web.archive.org Totally unrelated, remember that nearly everything published by the federal gov't is in the public domain.

It’s more than just textbooks! Open ed all the things! #OER #OEP oercommons.org

Failing a clever first post, I'll just say that we have 90,002 open educational resources available in our collections, free for anyone to access, and I I think that's pretty neat!
