Open Educational Resources (OER)

General OER Repositories

Below are several general OER repositories. See additional pages under OER Resources for textbooks, books and journals, courseware, and digital media.

  • Community College Consortium for OER
    CCCOER is a growing consortium of community and technical colleges committed to expanding access to education and increasing student success through adoption of open educational policy, practices, and resources.
  • GoOpenNC
    Focus is NC K-12, but includes a variety of resources curated by NC educators.

  • Mason OER Metafinder

    The OER Metafinder performs a simultaneous search across 17 different sources of open educational materials. Because it is a real-time, federated search, it can take a bit longer than searches of pre-indexed, curated content. This tool was developed at George Mason University.

  • MERLOT

    The MERLOT system provides access to curated online learning and support materials and content creation tools, led by an international community of educators, learners and researchers.

  • OASIS

    OASIS (Openly Available Sources Integrated Search) offers users the ability to search a wide range of OER materials. OASIS also is the only tool that allows users to limit searches by creative commons licenses or by faculty review. This tool was developed by the Milne Library at SUNY Geneseo.

  • OER Commons

    From a single point of access in OER Commons, you can search, browse, and evaluate resources in OER Commons' growing collection of over 50,000 high-quality OER. Here are some curated collections to start exploring: Full university courses, Interactive mini-lessons and simulations, Adaptations of existing open work, Open Textbooks.

  • openNCCC
    Library of open educational resources that promotes exploration, creation, and collaboration with the goal of enriching teaching and learning in North Carolina and around the world.
