OER can be in the form of full courses, course materials, textbooks, curricula, syllabi, lecture notes, tests, assignments, videos or audio (UNESCO)
Valencia College libraries also have subscriptions to a multitude of resources than can be embedded in Canvas to also supplement your course materials. Even though these resources are not OER, they can be used together with OER to reduce the cost for students.
Databases are collections of articles from a wide variety of sources that may include newspapers, magazine, trade journals, and peer-reviewed journals. When you have a topic but no particular publication in mind it is often easier to search a database.
Trade journals are magazine-like publications designed for a particular industry. They can be searched individually if you prefer or you will find many in InfoTrac Tourism, Hospitality and Leisure eCollection.
