Join us for the Open Educational Resources Summit, a free one-day conference focused on Open Educational Resources (OER) and their role in expanding access, equity, and innovation in teaching and learning. Sponsored by University Libraries and the College of Arts and Sciences, this event brings together educators, instructional designers, librarians, administrators, and advocates to explore how open resources are being created, adopted, and sustained across educational contexts.

Being held in the Ernest F. Hollings Special Collections Library, the program will feature panel discussions, hands-on trainings, and other presentations highlighting practical strategies, research, and real-world examples of OER in action. Sessions are designed to support both newcomers to OER and those with more advanced experience. 

To accommodate busy schedules and encourage different levels of participation, the conference offers multiple attendance options. A limited number of full-day registrations include access to all sessions as well as a provided lunch and dedicated networking time. We also have session-only registration available for participants who wish to attend one or more sessions but cannot commit to the full day; lunch is not included with session-only registration. 

Whether you are looking to gain foundational knowledge, deepen your practice, or connect with others working in open education, this conference offers flexible ways to engage with timely ideas and conversations around OER!
