Education Week that U.S. Department of Education will be creating a National Learning Registry to index digital learning resources. Presumably OER will be included. From the post:
In a speech to the National Rural Education Technology Summit, Duncan gave the example of digital artifacts pertaining to the first moon landing in explaining the value of the planned registry. Currently, recordings of the conversations, digital exhibits about the rockets involved, and weather records from the mission are scattered across the websites of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum, and theNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Thanks to Timothy Vollmer for the link.
