Librarians are also available to meet one-on-one with faculty members to help with all aspects of the OER and open pedagogy process: finding OER, building an OER from multiple components, developing a student-centered open pedagogy project, and integrating additional resources into your class.

To make an appointment, submit an appointment request form. Requests may take up to 1 business day to be scheduled.

Many OER textbooks and courses, including all those available through SUNY OER Services, can be integrated with OnCourse to provide a seamless experience for students.

To request access to a SUNY OER Services textbook or course, submit a SUNY OER Services Request form.
