I am pleased to announce the publication of my Open Access Textbooks (OATs) LibGuide

The guides includes the following tabs:
Definitions

Community English Texts (Internet Archive)
Connexions
Dynamic Textbook Project
E-Books Directory
Flat World Knowledge
FreeTechBooks.com
Open Course Library
Open Textbook Catalog (University of Minnesota)

Wikibooks
The OATs LibGuide is available via
[ http://digital-textbooks.blogspot.com/2012/11/open-access-textbooks-oats-libguide.html ]
In the near future, I will create a 'Bibliography' (or 'Resources') tab, and will begin to populate it with significant citations / blogs / slides / social media / etc. .
As always, any and all candidates for potential inclusion in OATs are most welcome !
Enjoy !
