The International Review of Research in Open and Distance Learning (an open access journal) has published an issue that focuses on OERs (see below).
Also, recently published online on the Learning, Media and Technology journal site is an article entitled “Self-directed learning and guidance in non-formal open courses”. It’s an interesting look at how OERs were used in two non-formal courses. Could be worth a read if you are thinking of using OERs in any teaching you do.
