Open Educational Resources (OER)

A good place to find OER resources is Canvas Commons. You can find complete courses, modules, and other resources already formatted for Canvas. Just be sure to check the licensing of the resource before downloading it. Here is a guide showing how to use Canvas Commons.

MERLOT offers a way to "Search for Materials Related to a Book" by ISBN (International Standard Book Number).

OERSI (Open Educational Resources Search Index), created in 2023, offers a search index for OER in higher education.

The ALPA OER Repository, offered through PALCI and Affordable Learning PA, is a way to search for OER being used at institutions in Pennsylvania. (2023 pilot)
