Open Educational Resources

ERAU Open Education Week

What is Open Education Week?

Open Education Week is a global event to celebrate open and accessible education. Since 2022, Hunt Library has used this week to celebrate the efforts made by faculty and staff to create more open and affordable courses. The week is also a great opportunity for us to educate about the services and resources that are available to support open education and to raise awareness with faculty, staff, and students about the need for more accessible educational resources.
