The document discusses the University of College Dublin Library's new strategy to take a program-based approach to information literacy instruction by embedding it within large multi-disciplinary arts and science programs. It provides examples of how the library partnered with faculty to create information literacy tutorials and activities for the Introduction to Arts and Principles of Scientific Enquiry modules, reaching over 1,600 and 370 students respectively. The lessons learned include the benefits of this new approach, opportunities to expand it to other programs, and challenges around sustainability and measuring impact.

Student OER Panels and Campus-wide Faculty OER DevelopmentUna Daly
Please join the Community College Consortium for Open Educational Resources (CCCOER) for a free and open webinar promoting OER Adoption at colleges through structured, public student-faculty dialogues on costs of textbooks and a campus wide faculty development effort to create awareness of existing open educational resources.
Date: Thur, March 10, Time: 10 am PST, 1:00 pm EST
Student Voices Panel:
A panel of students from the Pierce College District in Washington will share their thoughtful public dialogues, co-sponsored by the Center for Engagement & Learning, with faculty about lowering textbook costs through OER.
Moderator: Quill West, OER Project Manager, Pierce College District
Campus-wide OER Faculty Development:
Sue Tashjian and Jody Carson co-chairs of the Northern Essex Community College’s (NECC) Textbook Task Force will share how they nurtured a small program on campus to incentivize 5 faculty to adopt OER has grown over the last two years. Through faculty development to help instructors faculty find high-quality open educational resources and additional OER funding, NECC has saved students over $450,000 and growing.

Increasing OER Adoptions with the Community College Consortium for OERUna Daly
During the past few years, adoptions of open textbooks at community colleges have increased. A key component in many community college adoption campaigns has been participating in communities of practice. Members of the Community College Consortium for OER (CCCOER) will share their successful strategies and tactics for creating a community of practice nationally as well as locally.
Etienne Wenger defines communities of practice as “groups of people who share a concern or a passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly.” With over 200 member colleges in 17 states and provinces, CCCOER encourages collaboration between members and invites OER project presentations at their monthly online advisory meetings. Experienced members advise those who are just getting started on OER and best practices are freely shared. Access to a community of college OER experts through the CCCOER listserve makes it easier for new members to find and adopt the highest quality OER available in their disciplines.
Monthly webinars featuring OER leaders at community colleges, universities, and educational organizations around the world keep the community informed of new research findings, OER projects, and open policies. Meetups at regional and national conferences provide an opportunity to share and promote the OER adoption successes of our members with colleagues throughout higher education.

Integrating Library Resources into the Course Development Process at an Online College
Anita Norton, Johns Hopkins University
Electronic resources and librarians services must reach out to a broad spectrum of populations in academic settings. In an effort to promote use of library resources and services, the librarians for Excelsior College have produced a way of increasing usage of both the services and resources through course integration. This model of systematically integrating library services and resources into online courses will be addressed in this presentation. The presentation will demonstrate how to collaborate with course developers and instructional designers at the point where the course is being designed. Examples of how librarians can initiate partnerships within the academic institution; manage the workflow of requested projects; manage expectations; and ultimately market services will be discussed.
