Abstract

Oregon's OER FAQ provides guidance for users of open educational resources. This project was inspired by the BC Campus FAQ (https://mycusthelp.ca/BCCAMPUS/_rs/(S(sksjwk1ikti0fkvc5eoo4a45))/FindAnswers.aspx). Rather than use FAQ software, Oregon's version uses Library DIY, which was conceived at PSU by a team led by Meredith Farkas; Tom Boone wrote the code (example: https://library.pdx.edu/diy/node/2; available on GitHub: https://github.com/pdxlibrary/Library-DIY). This presentation by the OER FAQ team will cover the back end work to set up our instance of Library DIY and a tour of the front end that users will navigate to DIY their OER FAQs.*

*No three-letter acronyms were harmed in the writing of this description.
