Business models in OER, a contingency approach
| Published | September 2010 |

ABSTRACT
We will present an analysis of data from a literature review and semi-structured interviews with experts on OER, to identify different aspects of OER business models and to establish how the success of the OER initiatives is measured. The results collected thus far show that two different business models for OER initiatives exist, but no data on their success or failure is published. We propose a framework for measuring success of OER initiatives.| Keywords | business case · business models · interviews · review |
