Dear Colleagues,

I'm writing on behalf of OU Libraries to announce that we are seeking applicants to our recently posted OER Librarian position:

OU Libraries seeks an innovative, collaborative, and highly motivated individual to serve as the Open Education Coordinator. Successful candidates will have a strong understanding of open educational resources (OER), open licensing, open pedagogy, and the landscape in which these open-enabled domains reside. This position develops strategies for increasing the use of OER and alternative textbook and course material solutions at the University of Oklahoma by leading, planning, implementing, and assessing OU’s Open Education programs and services in support of OU’s goal to reduce the cost of attendance for its students. The Open Education Coordinator manages the Alternative Textbook Grant, which has saved students nearly $4M in displaced textbook costs since its inception, and otherwise works to increase students’ access to educational resources via creative and inclusive strategies.

The University of Oklahoma and the University Libraries are dedicated to building and fostering a diverse, inclusive, and equitable educational and work environment. We seek to create an atmosphere in which diverse thought and experiences are valued and that promises opportunities to succeed and thrive. We recruit, employ, train, compensate and promote regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, genetic information, gender identity, gender expression, age, religion, disability, political beliefs, veteran status, and other protected status as required by applicable law.  We invest in our organization by recruiting individuals committed to superior user experience and by actively strengthening and expanding our skills and capabilities.  View the full job description or apply at Requisition #212783.
