The need for information resources that support learning, education, research, and community services at higher education institutions is changing and growing. Individual institutions and their libraries may not be able to suffice all of their user needs, despite high commitment to budget allocation. Out there, with the advancement of communication technology, internet and the growing spirit of sharing there are various open educational contents that could be used and re-used legally. Libraries with limited budgets and contents can make use of the available resources through their portals, providing alternative resources accessible ubiquitously.

The AUNILO Workshop with the topic “Library Portal Content Enrichment through Open Educational Resources” that will be held in 7th August 2019 is intended to facilitate participants to learn and demonstrate knowledge on open educational resources that could be utilized by academic libraries to enrich their library portal contents. The workshop is also aimed at narrowing the gap among AUNILO member libraries in terms of knowledge and expertise through sharing best practices, particularly in the utilization of OER to support education for millennial generation. Hence, expected resource persons of the workshop are individuals/staff from AUNILO member libraries with particular knowledge, expertise/competency on OER and their utilization to enrich library contents.
