However, it is not clear what is meant by 'sustainability' in relation to OER, what will be needed to achieve or demonstrate this, nor who the expectation of sustainability relates to. This paper draws on experiences of UK OER projects to identify aspirations that those involved in delivering OER activity have for OER sustainability what a 'manifesto' for OER sustainability beyond project funding, based on OER use, might look like.}, url = {http://openaccess.uoc.edu/webapps/o2/bitstream/10609/5141/6/Pegler.pdf}, attachments = {Pegler.pdf}, }
