Open licenses like Creative Commons licenses make Open Access publishing and OER possible. But what is Open Access? What are OER? Listen and then check out the links below to learn about these areas of practice and their significance to CUNY.

Open Access and OER at CUNY

CUNY Academic Works is CUNY’s institutional repository for Open Access scholarship and OER.

CUNY faculty also share OER at OpenEd CUNY.

OER and other Open Access works are published with Manifold @CUNY.

CUNY faculty and students can create OER using CUNY’s instance of Pressbooks.

Check out this guide to Open Access from CUNY Graduate Center’s Mina Rees Library.
