Search & Discovery:  OER's Open Loop Nathan R. Yergler Creative Commons
What comes after creation?
Search today is failing for OER
 
CC is applying our experience with licensed-work search to OER
 
How is this different?
Smaller search pool
Indexing metadata and text
Enables search “drill-down”
Resources don't have to be submitted to a single repository
Challenges
Differences in vocabulary and terms
Inaccurate or incomplete marking of works
Upcoming Work
Continuing to work with creators and aggregators to document shared practices
Improved query engine and metadata support
Resources for other developers
