Imagine you are a librarian at a library where OER are being added to the digital repository without quality assurance or proper curation. Community members are frustrated because:
- Some OER have broken links or are inaccessible.
- Metadata is incomplete or inconsistent, making it difficult to find relevant resources.
- There are outdated or low-quality OER that do not align with curriculum needs.
- Most OER are not inclusive, lacking multilingual support or accessibility features.
One day, a teacher from the community emails you:
"I tried to find an open textbook for my Biology lesson, but the search results were all over the place. Some materials had no author information, and many seemed outdated. My students are struggling to locate high-quality resources. Can you help?"
Discuss the following with your group:
- How does poor curation affect your library community?
- What are the risks of providing low-quality, unverified, or inaccessible OER?
- Why is metadata and standardisation critical for discoverability?
