“…In February 2017, a university-wide working group, consisting of faculty, students, bookstore representatives and others, was charged with developing new initiatives related to open and affordable educational resources. For example, Penn State now offers several grant initiatives to advance OER, supports the World Campus e-book program, affordable content platforms (e.g., Top Hat, Unizin Engage), and a textbook and educational resource fund (Riehman-Murphy et al, 2020). Additionally, it created an institutional OER repository and a textbook web aggregator to help automate the process of identifying courses that rely on open and affordable content.…”
