This presentation aims to showcase different examples of actions by libraries across Europe on the subject of Open Education, by inviting several librarians to converse on the development of Open Education in their respective countries and the growing collaboration on this subject. From capacity building to national projects, librarians are raising awareness and encouraging the adoption of open educational resources in their institutions. This international discussion will allow educators, policymakers and fellow librarians to have an accurate understanding of the progression of OER and open educational practices in various European countries. While some challenges for the development of open education are met everywhere around the globe, European countries also face specific issues, and seek to resolve them through cooperation. By highlighting librarians who are beginning to take action in the path to openness as well as those who can rely on strong communities and national networks, the presentation will aim to showcase and increase collaboration on an international scale.
