MERLOT - https://www.merlot.org/
One of the first (20 years and counting) and still one of the largest, MERLOT or Multimedia Educational Resources for Learning and Online Teaching, aggregates 19 different types or categories of resources. There is initial vetting by MERLOT volunteers, combined with the ability of peers to assess each resource.

CORE – https://core.ac.uk
Based in the United Kingdom, CORE is committed to aggregating open access research from across the globe. With full text access to over 6 million articles and metadata for an additional 70 million, you can peek into the latest work from colleagues and leaders in your discipline from around the world.

eCampusOntario Open Library - https://openlibrary.ecampusontario.ca
The eCampusOntario Open Library is Ontario’s home for open educational resources. The library has over 500 resources spanning from textbooks to syllabi. All the resources in the Open Library have an Open Licence. If you do find and use an appropriate resource, please let the eCampusOntario team know. Consider adding your expertise and submitting a review of the text.

eCampusOntario H5P Studio - https://h5pstudio.ecampusontario.ca
The eCampusOntario H5P Studio is a place for educators to create, share, and discover over 45 different types of interactive activities which can be embedded into your learning materials. Many of the resources carry an open licence, and the platform allows you to adapt these resources to better suit your teaching and learning needs.

MIT Open Courseware – https://ocw.mit.edu/educator/
Beginning in 2000, MIT has been committed to contributing its courses and accompanying resources online, for free (CC BY NC SA). Now with 2,400 courses, educators can browse and borrow material relevant to their own courses. 'Instructor insights' by MIT lecturers and professors provide wonderful added value. The newly implemented filter or search by 'instructional approach' is intriguing. Limit your search to activities and courses that promote active learning, model design process, or support reflective practice.

Public Domain Review – https://publicdomainreview.org
Founded in 2011, this is an online journal and not-for-profit project dedicated to "the exploration of curious and compelling works from the history of art, literature, and ideas". The focus is on works which have now fallen into the public domain, that vast commons of out-of-copyright material that everyone is free to enjoy, share, and build upon without restriction.
