| dc.description.abstract | The opacity of course-material selection practices and related lack of recent scholarship on the topic is a barrier for open education advocates seeking to understand the context of instructor course material selection. This chapter reviews the limited numbers of large-scale and disciplinary-oriented literature on the topic, reasons for the apparent lack of transparency, scholarship-prescribed processes, instructor incentives and rationale, and potential roles for open education advocates, including librarians.
