By clearly identifying the stakes of library, faculty, student, administrative, instructional design, information technology, and bookstore partnerships, the authors promote a sort of inventory for how and why we might meaningfully engage these local audiences in support of OER. Looking beyond our institutions to the broader external communities, legislation, and services related to OER, this chapter introduces the importance of considering how conversations might (and ultimately 8 OER: A FIELD GUIDE FOR ACADEMIC LIBRARIANS should) scale to include metrics that are worth sharing outside of our respective institutions.UMass Amherst Open Access Policyhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/article
