I gave this presentation at the cetis 2009 Find and Seek workshop. It discusses how we could bring the worlds of OER and linked data together to aid discovery and reuse. I discuss two initiatives Talis is doing in this area - the Talis Aspire resource list management system and the Talis Incubator fund for Open Eduction
