Collection of Art & Design Related Open Educational Resources

Lead: Research & Information Services Section

When the Research & Information Services Section met at the 2019 annual conference, a need was identified for a centralized open educational resource index where librarians and educators can find resources that are relevant to art and design curricula. RISS members will solicit links to OERs that ARLIS/NA members have found and used, and will evaluate the links received for applications to various library environments and patron populations. RISS will also do some independent searching for applicable OERs, and combine all resources into an index that will be placed on the RISS blog. Each OER indexed will be accompanied by a short description and potential uses relative to different types of libraries and programs. The index will be maintained by the project members, including the RISS moderators, in order to ensure all links are current and active and to add new ones as they are created.
