This paper depicts the sustainability of Open Educational Resources (OERs) in terms of the three models: funding, technical, and content. Discussion and recommendations are focused on the sustainability of OERs and the requirement that we think of OERs as only part of a larger picture -one that includes volunteers and incentives, community and partnerships, co-production and sharing, distributed management and control.
