For instance, librarians, instructional designers, educational technologists, academic leaders, IT, and Media Services, to name a few, need to understand their role in supporting faculty to make this work happen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In order for the support staff to not see OER \u201cas more work\u201d or as a threat to their jobs, it\u2019s helpful to have an informal conversation with them separate from faculty. It\u2019s important to give support staff a chance to talk freely without faculty because their concerns are often different and highly specialized to their department. This conversation also builds community and collaboration for support staff who will have a role in the success of OER in the behind-the-scenes. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Guiding Questions: <\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Who supports the supporters? Where can they go for help? How can the Lumen team help them? <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Encourage your audience to share their concerns. They may surface barriers and solutions that will help one another. This work is the perfect way to get departments our their silos.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>What is the role of administration? Who leads? Who organizes? <\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ask administrators to share what their role at your institution. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Which faculty members are going to do the work?<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Do you have a list of faculty doing this work? Who can they expect to hear from? Who should they reach out to? How do they handle new inquiries from faculty who might be interested in OER? How can they help faculty help themselves?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>What is the role of librarians? IT? Etc.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Before you share what you think everyone\u2019s role should be, ask them how they can help. Let them have ownership in their work. You might find out they have great ideas that they haven\u2019t been able to send up the chain. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"background-color: #ffffff;background-position: center center;background-repeat: no-repeat;padding-top:30px;padding-right:22%;padding-bottom:20px;padding-left:22%;margin-bottom: 0px;margin-top: 0px;border-width: 0px 0px 0px 0px;border-color:#eae9e9;border-style:solid;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-5 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:20px;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\" style=\"background-position:left top;background-repeat:no-repeat;-webkit-background-size:cover;-moz-background-size:cover;-o-background-size:cover;background-size:cover;padding: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><style type=\"text\/css\"><\/style><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"margin-top:0px;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:0px;margin-left:0px;\"><h2 class=\"title-heading-left fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:46;line-height:1.13;\">Helpful Resources<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_1_3 1_3 fusion-one-third fusion-column-first\" style=\"width:33.333333333333%;width:calc(33.333333333333% -
