The National Digital Learning Resources (NDLR)

The National Digital Learning Resources (NDLR) is an Irish higher education sectoral initiative, to enable the sharing of digital learning content and associated teaching experience across Universities, Institutes of Technologies and associated Colleges funded by the HEA.

The NDLR's purpose is “to promote and support Higher Education sector staff in the collaboration, development and sharing of digital learning resources and associate teaching practices”.
