In this work­shop orga­nized by the Euro­pean Net­work of Open Edu­ca­tion Librar­i­ans (ENOEL) and facil­i­tated by twillo and Surf.nl, we want to exam­ine the chal­lenges, oppor­tu­ni­ties, and incen­tives that shape reuse of Open Edu­ca­tional Resources (OER). While the ENOEL is mainly focused on librar­i­ans, every­one is wel­come to join. The work­shop is con­ducted in Eng­lish.

OER are great, not only because they can be can be freely accessed and dis­sem­i­nated, but also because they can be reused by any­one with few to any restric­tions. But what do we actu­ally know about reusing OE con­tent? In this work­shop, we want to exam­ine reuse in its many shapes and forms. What are the pre­con­di­tions for reuse (e.g, mind­set, media & for­mats, tech­nol­ogy & soft­ware, logos & brand­ing, meta­data)? How can we sup­port and fos­ter reuse? What research is there and what insights can we gain from it?

Sylvia Moes (Surf, Nether­lands), David Stöll­ger (TIB/twillo, Ger­many) and our guest speaker Harry Stokhof (HAN, Nether­lands) pro­vide insights from their unique con­texts.

We also what to hear from you! Please feel free to join the inter­ac­tive dis­cus­sion on reusing OE con­tent, and share your expe­ri­ences and insights.
