Our Free and Paid Services
FREE Training and Support
LibreTexts wants your students to access quality materials for low or no cost, so we want all faculty to have the training necessary to succeed. Working alone at a college with little OER community? Reach out! We can help.
FREE Office Hours
Weekly Zoom Office Hours on a first-come, first-serve basis on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 9am Pacific/ 12pm Eastern. Head to our zoom meeting at zoom.libretexts.org
Recorded Training Sessions on YouTube
Our OctoberFest and LibreFest trainings are all recorded and posted to our YouTube channel for anyone to follow-along at their own pace. Be sure to watch the most recent video pertaining to your interest as our platform is ever-evolving and getting more powerful!
FREE Online Training Courses
Check out our Academy@LibreTexts Online courses! Many of the courses have free preview pages where you can access all of the training materials. Our platform is designed to help anyone to build and use OER, but you may choose to pay to take our assessments and earn certifications and badges to provide evidence of your professional development.
FREE Monthly Back-to-Basics Training Webinars
These are interactive, engaging sessions on the third Friday of every month. The topic changes, but always is aimed at complete beginners to LibreTexts and ADAPT Homework. Check out the topics here.
Publishing Assistance
Having been instructors, ourselves, we know it is difficult to block out time to focus on your publishing efforts. Make use of our Cohort Mentoring or 1:1 training programs!
1:1 Mentoring Programs
We can offer individual regularly scheduled meetings across any time period you would like for general office hour-like Q&As, individualized training and support in finding images, documenting your Creative Commons use, or just accountability and support along the way!
Cohort and Ad Hoc Cohorts
Have a department or a group of like-minded people on campus wanting to have shared trainings and office hours? Check out our Cohort options. Are you forging your own path in OER and would love a community? Post on our Connections Forum with our Seeking Collaborators tag to find others in your area to form an ad hoc cohort (which is cheaper! we want to encourage cross-institution collaborations).
In-Person and Virtual Trainings
Plan a full day on-site LibreTexts workshop for your campus! We have years of experience with guided trainings and all our facilitators have used LibreTexts and ADAPT in their classrooms. A half-day workshop is enough to get faculty from zero OER experience to having a usable draft of a textbook ready to go! Looking for cheaper homework? Check out ADAPT and it's wide variety of uses.
Build your sustainable OER future with LibreTexts!
Robust long-term solutions with no cost commitment! All books are available for continued revision for as long as you want to revise them! Pass along shared texts among department members, and keep institutional knowledge from disappearing. OER is more than just low-cost... it's sustainable.
