Abstract: Libraries are being called upon to do more with OERs (Open Educational Resources) and Alt-Texts. From locating them to cataloging them, technical service departments need to know how to work with them. This session will discuss how the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and East Carolina University are dealing with OERs and Alt-Texts.It will also discuss an LSTA grant shared by both institutions that is helping them save students money with OERs and Alt-Texts.
