Comment by Sally Robertson on April 8, 2013 at 1:25pm: I really like the new student portal for MERLOT. Any ideas how I can get my colleagues to see that it is useful to students?

Comment by Gerry Hanley on April 8, 2013 at 9:49pm: Hi Sally! Thanks for your message. My recommendation is to talk the position of a reference librarian. When students are looking for materials that will help them learn course content - and they don't have money to buy the new textbook - they can find free/open e-textbooks, free/open online courses, and free online course modules. Use the Affordable Learning Solutions strategy

Comment by Sally Robertson on April 9, 2013 at 2:52am: Ok thanks. That is what I've been doing, but I will keep trying. Students that I introduce to MERLOT really like it. I will keep working on my colleagues. I like the Affordable Learning Solutions strategy.
