Happy Open Education Week and welcome to another episode of 'The Other 50 Weeks'!  

In this episode I am joined by Simon Hart (Policy, Planning, and Evaluation Librarian), Sarah Stein (Director, Distance Learning), and Richard White (Manager, Copyright & Open Access) from the University of Otago (New Zealand).

We discuss a recent study of textbook access and affordability, how it could be scaled up, and the role of open resources in the student experience.
