The MiOER Network team is pleased to announce our conference keynote speaker, Heather Blicher. Heather Blicher is the Director of the Community College Consortium for OER (CCCOER) with Open Education Global, where she leads efforts to expand and support Open Education across community colleges in North America. A passionate advocate for access, equity, and collaboration, Heather works to build community and empower practitioners as they drive the next wave of innovation in Open Education.
With more than 20 years of experience in public and academic libraries, her work has focused on teen programming, online learning, instructional design, and equity-centered initiatives. Heather believes in the power of storytelling to build stronger, more connected communities—an idea reflected in her recent publications and a theme she brings to her keynote. She holds a Master of Science in Library and Information Science and was nationally recognized with the 2017 Distance Learning Librarianship Award from the Association of College & Research Libraries.
Outside of work, Heather is an animal advocate who believes that fostering community and fostering animals aren't all that different—both require patience and treats.
