Open Educational Resources (OER) are meant to be as open and available as possible, but if they’re not accessible or on accessible platforms, how “open” are they really? In this webinar, staff from the Michigan State University (MSU) Libraries will share how they’ve integrated accessibility into their OER initiatives and OER grant program to improve the accessibility of OER created at MSU. In order to hopefully implement similar OER accessibility processes at their libraries, attendees can expect to learn about OER Accessibility Resources, MSU Libraries’ OER Accessibility Checklist & Grant Program Accessibility Requirements, MSU Libraries’ Staff who Work on OER Accessibility, MSU Libraries’ OER Accessibility Evaluation Workflow & Procedures, 
Specific OER Accessibility Challenges/Issues and OER Accessibility Tips and Lessons Learned.

Speakers:
Heidi Schroeder is the Accessibility Coordinator at Michigan State University Libraries.

Chandlee Marcyk-Taylor is the Digital Course Materials Coordinator at Michigan State University Libraries.

If you'd like to talk with CARLI staff and your CARLI library colleagues about Alma Fulfillment and Automated Fulfillment Network workflows, known issues, and Q & A, join us online on Friday, October 28, from 2:00-3:30 central.

Sessions are scheduled for every other week on Friday afternoons at 2pm.

CARLI Office Staff will be online to work with your questions and to facilitate the discussion.

  • The presentation portion of the session will be recorded for posting to the CARLI website.
  • If there is time for open Q &A, since Fulfillment involves patron data, the CARLI office will evaluate if it is fitting and valuable to post segments of the session for later review.

Connection information will be sent to registrants the day before.

Additional sessions of "Let's talk about Fulfillment (I mean Alma, not life's purpose)" are scheduled/have occurred.
Please register for future sessions if interested, or review past sessions for the discussion notes. All sessions are listed on the CARLI Event Calendar.

Tue, Nov 1, 2022 / 1:00pm to 2:30pm

Whether from the link resolver, the library catalog/discovery platform, or a vendor’s interface, our patrons will find links to articles that don’t work. How can librarians investigate these reports? This presentation will cover basics of investigating, solving and (hopefully) reducing such errors in today’s academic research library. Some examples will focus on Alma/PrimoVE, however the general troubleshooting principles apply to all library systems and interfaces. 

Denise D. Green has worked for CARLI since October 2014. She’s had a long career in reference, instruction, e-resources & link resolver management and staff training in Ohio and Illinois academic libraries. She advocates for public services librarians learning more about e-resources, authentication and troubleshooting to better support our students, faculty and all patrons.
