This paper did not, as I had hoped, introduce an open textbook toolkit (except as a project for which they authors are preparing). Rather, it outline some of the research undertaken to determine what an open textbook toolkit would need to support. The focus is on materials for university psychology courses. Overall, the study replicates the earlier Babson study results, in essence, "the most significant barrier to wider (faculty) adoption of OER remains a faculty perception of the time and effort required to find and evaluate it."
