[LRMI Implementation Case Studies:
Overview](https://lornamcampbell.wordpress.com/2014/08/06/lrmi-implementation-
projects-case-studies/)
"As part of our work for Creative Commons on the Learning Resource Metadata
Initiative (LRMI), my colleague Phil Barker and I have been writing short case
studies on a number of LRMI implementation projects that were funded between
2013-2014. Ten different OER platforms received small grants from the Gates
and Hewlett Foundations to implement the LRMI specification and share their
experiences with other developers. I’ll be posting the case studies here over
the next couple of weeks and once all case studies have been completed we also
plan to produce a high level technical synthesis of the projects' outputs."
