OER Share & Learn
Please join the NCCCLA OER Task Force for our spring 2024 Share & Learn session where our special guest will be Robert “Stephen” Venters. Stephen is the assistant manager at Pitt CC’s Fulford-Rhodes Student Store, and he brings with him years of experience dealing with textbooks, publishers, inclusive access, and everything in-between. The PCC student store is an independent bookstore that fulfills a wide range of curriculum needs in a variety of formats. Stephen will be there to help us, as community college librarians, to get a better handle on the distinctions between inclusive and equitable access, pros and cons of each, and what is making this such a hot topic right now. Bring your questions (and answers!) so that we can share and learn from each other in this very informal and relaxed session.
NCCCLA members will receive an email via MemberPlanet where they can register. Once registration is completed, the confirmation e-mail will include a Zoom link that can be used to access the session on Friday, March 1, 2024. We recommend that you log in a few minutes before the session is scheduled to being at 9:30 a.m. so that we can begin on time.
If you have any questions, please contact Angela Davis, OER Task Force Chairperson (asdavis688@my.pittcc.edu).

How South Piedmont CC uses OER
The NCCCLA OER Task Force invites you to join us for an online session with Dana Glauner, Director of Library Services, and Shelby Beard, Information Services Librarian as they share how South Piedmont CC uses OER.
South Piedmont Community College, a 2023 Top 10 Bellwether Award finalist, has proven its dedication to equity and student success through their “Learning Reimagined” project. Part of that project included incorporating OER (open educational resources) as much as possible throughout the curriculum. Join us as we hear from Dana Glauner and Shelby Beard and learn how their campus uses OER. There will be plenty of time for Q&A after their brief presentation.
