%X Open educational resources (OERs) are materials that are available freely to students and faculty. While the concept of OERs was created about 10 years ago, the field of public health and health education has not widely adopted these materials. This article discusses the positive benefits of OERs to students and faculty, along with some of the potential challenges faced by adopting OERs. Ultimately, OERs could prove to be a solution to ensuring up-to-date information reaches students, faculty, and practitioners in the field and offer textbooks at a reasonable cost for students
