Open Educational Resources (OER)

Library guide to openly accessible academic content.

Open Resources by Subject

CU library staff have identified a number of freely accessible textbooks and other materials that faculty might consider adopting for their courses. One way to get started with using OER / open access textbooks is to replace one or two readings in your current syllabus with chapters from OER / open access textbooks.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you find a textbook you are interested in, we recommend downloading it and saving it on your computer, because as time goes by, OER publishers and repositories occasionally remove items from their websites.
