SUMMARY:Open Metadata Exchange: Enabling OER Access Across Libraries
DESCRIPTION:The Open Metadata Exchange (OME) is a decentralized network that enables open education libraries to share and discover openly licensed resources and metadata across institutions while maintaining local control. \nBy connecting platforms through a shared\, flexible infrastructure\, OME helps reduce duplicated curatorial effort\, bridge metadata gaps\, and make high-quality Open Educational Resources more discoverable.  \nIn this session\, we will introduce  \n\nThe OME model\nDemonstrate how participating libraries connect and exchange metadata\nDiscuss how a community-governed\, decentralized approach can strengthen collaboration across the open education ecosystem.
