  • Digital librarians
  • DS/DH librarians
  • RIS librarians
  • Digital scholars & digital humanists
  • ‘Digital curious’ teaching faculty
  • Library admins
  • College admins
  • DS/DH center admins (especially those outside libraries)

Potential course content

• Creating primary source sets
• Course & syllabus design (see working lunch discussion)

Potential partners or key faculty members

• Pedagogy experts
• Digital collections experts
• People who’ve done it (what went well, what crashed & burned)
  • One-off vs. class
  • Small college vs. R1

Potential course activities

• Creating curricular material as OERs — “teaching as an open workflow"
• Contributing materials to Project CORA or Humanities Commons or #DLFteach wiki or DLF OSF

Defining 'open' for this DOCC

• Conversations in ‘all may come’ but private spaces, which in turn can generate open materials?
• Not making participants list public? Opt in rather than opt out?

Who’s coordinating?

• Elizabeth Gibes (Marquette University)
• Chelcie Rowell (Boston College)
