Guidance and Resources at UVA

University of Virginia Library

Our Recommendation
This UVA Library guide is a one-stop shop for OER support. You'll find practical tools and services like consultations, workshops, and publishing tools, which are incredibly useful for faculty and students with the added bonus of direct contact to helpful librarians well-versed in OER practices.
The UVA Library supports the creation and use of **Open Educational Resources (OER)**, which are freely available for sharing, adapting, and reuse. Open Educational Resources (OER) can encompass a variety of materials, including textbooks, syllabi, course modules, videos, assessment tools, and more. Our initiative also supports **Open pedagogy**, the practice of leveraging OER to foster equitable and active learning experiences that engage students as active creators of information, leading to improved engagement and academic success.
