The OSU Libraries’ OpenOKState Fellowship program is an opportunity to contribute to the success of OSU students, faculty, and the state of Oklahoma by facilitating open, customizable access to meaningful teaching, learning, and research resources and experiences.
OpenOKState fellowships are designed to support OSU faculty, instructors, and students actively envisioning and implementing open scholarly practices which broaden access to meaningful teaching, learning, and research opportunities. The program’s goal is to develop an ongoing, growing network of open practitioners. The OpenOKState Fellows application and selection process provides opportunity to identify, value, and cultivate people who demonstrate the creativity, expertise, and credibility necessary for sustained engagement with and development of inclusive and equitable scholarly environments.
The application cycle for 2024-2025 OpenOKState Fellows closed March 20, 2025.
OpenOKState Fellows promote collaboration and innovation among OSU faculty, instructors, administrators, and students working to increase access to meaningful research, teaching, and learning, resources and experiences.
OpenOKState fellows are selected in recognition of their contribution to scholarship and teaching through open practices which advance academic excellence, support student success, and facilitate community engagement.

Project collaborators such as OSU affiliated staff or faculty instructional designers, librarians, or accessibility specialists may be included and receive $250.

One $1000.00 scholarship may be available for an undergraduate student selected by OSU faculty to assist the faculty member in modifying, creating, or converting existing course materials to be available as OER. The scholarship is intended to provide one semester of support. See OpenOKState Fellows Student Scholar details for more information.
The OpenOKState OER Champions Awards provide recognition to faculty, instructors, or staff who have made outstanding contributions to advance open practices and OER at OSU. These awards will honor those whose open course materials and professional and research practices have had an impact on the student experience and influenced peers to share more openly.
