Choosing and Using OER
Whether your classroom is online or in person, teaching one-on-one or to hundreds of learners, you can effectively use OER in your course.
Use OER in Your Institution
Identify and modify OER (textbooks, course materials, etc.); support OER policies at your institution; join the conversation about OER in your area.
Open textbooks in the B.C. Open Collection come in multiple formats. Many can be read online or delivered via PDF and EPUB (for e-readers) format for free, or can be printed via our print-on-demand service for a nominal fee.
