[LIBRARYDIR] [Urgent] Congressional data request on OER cost savings

[Vivienne Mcclendon]

Hi Boyoung,
Can you tell me if the data you want is ONLY for OER cost savings or would you like any data on any effort toward affordable textbooks, rentals, or such efforts?
Thanks for the clarification and a deadline as well,
Vivienne

[Urgent] Congressional data request on OER cost savings

SBCTC has received a congressional data request on cost savings to students as a result of OER. As you know, we have established a system-wide code labeling the courses that use OER. However, it is being gradually implemented as colleges transition to ctclink.

In the absence of system wide data, we are respectfully requesting support from the colleges to share any data on cost savings as a result of OER. It does not need to be a complete report with details – a rough estimate would be sufficient and deeply appreciated.

Thank you,
Boyoung
