Summit 2024: Learn about OhioLINK OEN OER-certified librarians, June 12, 2-3PM
In 2024, OhioLINK funded a group of member librarians to become Open Education Network Open Education Certified Librarians.

Register here to learn about the genesis of this program, the certification process, the role it can play advancing OER at OhioLINK institutions, and how the panelists will be applying what they've learned on their own campuses.
