This document is the technical specification of core and contextual elements for Open Educational Resources using existing schema to create a Metadata Application Profile. It provides a list of relevant classes and properties used in OER metadata records at the institutional and repository level. It is our hope that this document will support best practices for OER repositories and institutions to leverage existing library expertise and networks

It was convened by the Scholarly Publishing and Academic ResourcesCoalition (SPARC).Great strides have been made in the creation and adoption of open educational resources. However, discovery remains a pain pointamong advocates and adopting instructors. SPARC’s intent in convening the OER Discovery Working Group was to catalyze aconversation among leaders and practitioners concerned with how to make OER more discoverable, to support the community indeveloping best practices, and outline potential next steps for how metadata standards could contribute to sustainable discoveryinfrastructure.1The OER Application Profile document, which uses core terms from multiple metadata vocabularies to meet the specific context andrequirements for application to OER, used the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) Metadata Application Profile, version 5.0, as amodel. The group has also taken initiative to test implementation of the profile to typical workflows in libraries by finding records totest the application profile. It is our hope that this document will support best practices for OER repositories and institutions toleverage existing library expertise and networks.This is intended as a living resource.
