Hi all, this message is cross-posted.

I'm following up on this question which I also asked in 2023. Since resources come and go, I'm wondering if there are new recommendations for finding OER in Spanish. I'll share back another roundup of responses. 

To clarify, this question is not about materials to learn Spanish, but rather course materials for Spanish speakers. Bilingual resources would be most helpful so that the same course could be taught in both English and Spanish. Here's what I already know of.

- OpenStax has some Spanish translations of their textbooks. Go to https://openstax.org/subjects, then from the "subjects" dropdown select Spanish to view.

- There is an excellent collection for Early Childhood Education from College of the Canyons that has Spanish translations available: https://tinyurl.com/ECEOERSummary.

- OERCommons has a language filter: https://oercommons.org/.

- OERSI has a language filter: https://oersi.org/.

- BCCampus Directory page for Spanish resources: https://opentextbc.ca/oerdiscipline/chapter/spanish/. 

- Libretext has a Spanish area of their site: https://espanol.libretexts.org/. This is mostly machine translation of OER in the site, with a few manually translated books and some that were written in Spanish (it is not possible to identify which is which).

- List of repositories and resources for OER in Spanish and other languages: https://es.serlo.org/community/199370/lista-de-repositorios-motores-de-b%C3%BAsqueda-y-sitios-web-con-licencias-rea. 

- Spanish tag on "OER in Other Languages" blog: https://oloer.opened.ca/tag/spanish/.


Other resources to share? Thank you!
Amy
