Our initial search to find suitable existing open textbooks encompassed the following sites:

• MERLOT
• OER Commons
• Connexions
• Free Technology Academy
• FLOSS Manuals
• FlatWorldKnowledge
• Free Book Centre
• Global Text
• The Saylor Foundation
• Jorum’s collection of of open teaching materials “Open Educational Repository in Support of Computer Science”
• BookBoon (quite a few potential texts at but they are “free as in beer,” not open, and are advertising supported)
• CK-12 Flexbooks (K-12 materials but of very good quality, worthy of examination as exemplars at least)
