Dean of the Dodge Family College of Arts and Sciences David Wrobel talks to University Libraries' Morgan Briles about the life-changing impact open education resources can have on students. Instructors who use no-cost "alternative textbooks" are ensuring that all students — regardless of their financial means — will have all the materials they need to be successful in the course. Creating open access materials and textbooks in class, as part of the curriculum, can also give students more ownership of their education.
Applications for the 2023 Alternative Textbook Grant are open now through March 6, 2023. All OU Norman instructors are eligible to apply for awards of up to $2,500.
