Bryan McGeary

United States

Dr. Bryan McGeary is the Sally W. Kalin Librarian for Learning Innovations and the Learning Design & Open Education Engagement Librarian at Penn State University. In this capacity, he helps advance the University’s initiatives that support the creation and use of open and affordable course content and associated teaching practices. He has led programs to support faculty creation and adoption of open educational resources, student co-creation of OER, and the creation and adaptation of OER to support social justice aims. He was also the principal investigator for an IMLS-funded project that piloted a library-led service model for supporting open-source homework systems as supplemental resources for teaching with OER across the Big Ten Academic Alliance.

In 2022, he received the OE Global Open Pedagogy Award, along with his colleague Christina Riehman-Murphy, for the Open Pedagogy Project Roadmap, a resource they designed to assist instructors in planning, finding support for, sharing, and sustaining open pedagogy projects. Bryan is a 2020-2021 SPARC Open Education Leadership Fellow, an instructor for the Open Education Network Certificate in Open Education Librarianship, and a facilitator for the Rebus Open Publishing Projects Certificate Program.
