I don't think the real problem with OERs is quality. Sure, it's nice to choose the better of two resources, if given a choice, and limited to using only one. But why limit yourself? Look at both! But of course looking at both is exactly the opposite of the model where course designers select the one-and-only resource from a library to create prepackaged courses to students. Anyhow, the story here is that "Macmillan Learning is launching a new course materials product that brings together open educational resources, instructor supplements and on-demand support. Dubbed Intellus Open Courses."
