[OERCommittee] CARLI's OER Committee: feedback

[Craig, Anne]

Hello Sarah!

I shared the attached document with the CARLI OER Committee. They had several concerns, including how their voice/the many voices in this space will be included in a statewide vision. They reminded me of the upcoming OER Summit that is planned on April 7 (email attached) and the meeting's goal to articulate a statewide vision. I apologized for any missteps or feelings of exclusion on CARLI's or my part. Certainly, that is never my intention.

I reassured the committee members that any vision will doubtless evolve, and that our priority in pulling the document together was ensuring that lawmakers and their staffs had a document in hand last week-when bills could be introduced-that would answer basic questions. We all know that continued funding is critically important.

On behalf of the committee and CARLI, I thank you for your leadership and for championing OER in the University System Office.

Anne
