SPARC is proud of our second graduating class of Open Education Leadership Fellows who started in mid-September 2018. The class of 23 represents SPARC member libraries from 15 states and provinces, and includes a diverse range of roles, interests, and experiences. The full cohort attended the 15th Annual Open Education Conference in Niagara Falls, NY in October 2018, and completed their capstone projects in May 2019.
