H2O is a way for you to create high-quality, freely available, online casebooks. Today we're sharing a new video introduction to the basics of H2O, and what it offers to students and faculty: https://t.co/VYFS4uQY3w
Equal access to information has many facets, but a low price tag (free!) and open distribution online (with the ability to print at home!) goes a long way. Create casebooks that are free to use and distribute. Built and maintained @HarvardLIL@hlslib#AALS2022#equality#OER
Freedom is cultivated when anyone can access learning & education. H2O allows professors to create free digital casebooks for their courses, license them openly, & be part of a community aiming to liberate legal textbooks! Built & maintained by @HarvardLIL@hlslib#AALS2022
Libraries: palaces to the people, serving the common good. @HarvardLIL works to extend that mission into the digital world. We've combine @caselawaccess & @opencasebook to allow law profs to create free digital casebooks for their students. Built & maintained @hlslib#AALS2022

As an experiment, used Fetch from @caselawaccess (https://t.co/xxRaUSvq8J) to extract citations from NCAA v. Alston, issued today by SCOTUS, then used Quick Add from @opencasebook to build a reader. Now easy to read and annotate the cases SCOTUS cited. https://t.co/mnGVlGwhvt

Using H2O's 'remix' functionality, the professors were able to build their book using sections of existing casebooks from @JeannieSGersen and Tim Wu (@superwuster), while adding original content. Read more details in the full post. https://t.co/O3teNlQGG6
Last year, professors Michelle Oberman, @WDavidBall, and Mike Flynn at @santaclaralaw used H2O to create an open, collaborative Criminal Law casebook with their students. Now, they are encouraging others to transition to open education resources for law: https://t.co/O3teNlQGG6
@zittrain has created several other open reading lists and casebooks in H2O since then, including this one for a course on Governing Digital Technology that he's teaching this spring. Educators can use H2O to clone and customize it for their own courses. https://t.co/0lz8w7qwRZ
H2O author highlight 📕: @zittrain first created his open access Torts casebook in 2013, and has been able to update it regularly over the years as his teaching has evolved. The most recent version, from 2018, is open and available for adaptation. https://t.co/e6uyvDIlaO
A milestone! Over 100 law professors from 40 different law schools have published open access casebooks and course materials for free with H2O 🔓. See what folks are publishing and adapt a resource for your class this year: https://t.co/lsxDSL7Iww
