Hannon Library to Launch Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Survey
Library NewsStarting this fall, the Hannon Library will launch its initial Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) survey. The purpose of the survey is to receive student, staff, faculty, and community feedback regarding EDI efforts at the library and how to improve them.
The project is spearheaded by the Hannon Library EDI committee, which will also collect and present the data to the library community at large following the survey’s conclusion.
Those interested in contributing to the survey can complete it online, or visit the library in person to fill out a physical copy. Questions can be directed to the Hannon Library EDI Committee at library@sou.edu.
News for Faculty on Open Educational Resources
Library NewsAs you know, the cost of textbooks and course materials continues to rise, adding a financial barrier for our students to enroll in courses and successfully complete their degree. Using open educational resources is one way in which instructors can have a direct impact on the cost of textbooks and on their students’ ability to have the course materials by the first day of class.
Open Educational Resources (OER) are teaching resources that are free of cost and access barriers, and which also carry legal permission for open use, allowing anyone to freely use, revise, and share the resource. OER range from textbooks to curricula, syllabi, lecture notes, assignments, tests, projects, audio clips and video clips.
Benefits of OER Include
Support is Available
Holly Gabriel, Open Access & Government Information Librarian, is available to assist instructors
