Hi!

I’m writing to introduce EducatorLabs.org, a new volunteer-based startup that conducts free research for educators. We put retired teachers and librarians (like me) back into meaningful engagement with other educators.

Would you be open to sharing our Request a Resource page with your education visitors (http://educatorlabs.org/request-a-resource/)? Maybe on this page: http://p2pfoundation.net/Open_Educational_Resources? And by the way… thank you for the resources there… we added some to our collection, including those on sustainability.

I’m passing along some resources below that are in the same environmentally-conscious vein as some of your other resources. Please add these if you think they’d be a good fit for educators:
