Interview with JISC’s Executive Director

Paul Miller has published an interview with Dr. Malcolm Read, Executive Director of Joint Information Systems Committee (JISC). The interview covers various issues around OER, such as marketing and standards. From the blog post:

The JISC has played a significant role in funding Open Source and Open Access initiatives in the UK for several years, and has a global reputation. With an injection of funds from the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE), JISC recently announced a call for proposals to demonstrate the value of more widespread availability of Open Educational Resources (proposals are due by 4 March).
