OER have the potential to celebrate research done by marginalized populations in the context of their own communities, to amplify the voices of those who have the knowledge but have been excluded from formal prestige networks, and to engage students as co-creators of learning content that is relevant and respectful of their cultural contexts.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Edited by academic librarians with experience advocating across campus, \u003ci\u003eUsing Open Educational Resources to Promote Social Justice\u003c\/i\u003e takes a multidisciplinary approach and is filled with examples of the ways OER and open pedagogy can be used to support social justice in education.
