For OERs to be truly open they must be accessible. In the same way that a free resource does not mean that the resource is open, a resource is not open just because it is available. When OER projects are accessible, they become more:

• inclusive, accounting for different methods, mediums, and modes of engaging with the content
• sustainable, delivering content when tools and technologies break down
• sharable, expanding reach and impact
