  abstract = {The term “open access” refers to many website formats and publicly accessible educational materials on the internet that anybody may view, read, and save for their relevant subject matter. Students, instructors, and scientists can use digital resources around the clock to get information on research projects and course materials. Online instructional resources, known as “open education resources”, are freely available and adaptable to enhance teaching and learning. These days, open-access electronic resources—which include textbooks, video lectures, assessments, learner activities, and other resources—have evolved into an educational centre to promote open education. Some web-based digital directories, such as Google Scholar, DOAJ, and others, are openly accessible and also available for open access to OER. This essay describes open educational resources (OER), legal requirements, restrictions on open material, how OERs might help instructors and students receive high-quality education—especially in developing nations like India—and weighs their benefits and drawbacks. The following is a list of significant Open Educational Resource projects in India.
