OER Review Stipends

Faculty members at PALNI-supported institutions, are you concerned about the impact of high textbook costs? You can get $200 for exploring open textbook solutions and contributing to the Open Textbook Library with an OER review. The review will help other faculty better understand the quality of the textbook, and it may also help you better understand if an open textbook would be a good fit for your classes. 

To request an invitation to write a short review of a title in the Open Textbook Library (rubric here), fill out the form below. Please wait a few days for a response. Invitations will come from the email address opentextbooks @ umn.edu with the subject: Invitation to Review.
