In this context, OfiLibre has decided to create a catalogue of free materials used in URJC subjects. In this way, we will have all this valuable teaching material, published openly at Rey Juan Carlos University, compiled in an orderly fashion.

With this initiative, the Open Knowledge and Culture Office calls on all teaching staff at our University who have created free materials and published them openly. If you would like to participate, you can write to our email address. Please follow these guidelines in your message to make the process easier for us:

  • The message must be sent from a Rey Juan Carlos University address.

  • The message must be sent to: ofilibre@urjc.es

  • The subject of the message must be: Catalogue of free materials

  • Each message must correspond to one material that has its own entity. Please group materials that make sense to group together (for example, notes for the same subject, or the series of videos prepared for the same subject).

  • The message must include this FORM (copy and paste it into the email you send), filled in with the corresponding information:

    1. First name:
    2. Last names:
    3. Centre (School or Faculty):
    4. Title of the material:
    5. Degree (or degrees) in which it has been used:
    6. Link to the material (notes, slides, videos, etc.):
    7. Licence used:
    8. Brief summary of the material:
    9. Where you published the material:

Optionally, we would also like to know how the creation process of this material went:

  1. Which platforms you used to generate the free material (if you have not used any of the sections written below, you can leave them blank. For example, if you have not used music in your material, leave the space blank) Videos: Images: Music: Slides: Information/Notes: Other platforms you consider of interest:

  2. What was the process of generating the free material and the difficulty involved in developing it in general.

  3. What doubts arose when making the free material or what doubts you still have and would like to clear up.

Thank you very much for your time and participation. Do join in!

Note: For the purposes of this catalogue, we consider as “open publication” that defined in the Berlin Declaration of 22 October 2003:

“The author(s) […] must guarantee the free, irrevocable and worldwide right to access the work, and licence to copy, use, distribute, transmit and publicly display it, and to make and distribute derivative works […]” (https://openaccess.mpg.de/Berlin-Declaration)

There is more information on the subject in our presentations on open publishing, which include slide decks and seminar videos on the subject, including which licences are considered open publishing, how to mark a material to make it free, the types of free publishing, etc.
