Abstract

The University of Kansas (KU) is a agship public research university located in Lawrence, KS, enrolling about 25K students. KU has a long history of advocacy and support for open access to scholarly literature, in 2009 becoming the rst public U.S. university to adopt a faculty open access policy. It was natural enough to add OER to those efforts, starting in roughly 2015 when we joined the Open Education Network (OEN). Institutional OER efforts are anchored in KU Libraries, but enjoy signi cant support beyond the Libraries, for example via a campus-level Textbook Working Group and KU’s Open Language Resource Center.
