After initial hostility and skepticism to Open Universities, the critical response became more favorable. From 1971 onwards there was a tremendous amount of writing about the Open University, not only in British journals and newspapers but also abroad. This bibliography incorporates over 130 entries dealing with the Open University in Great Britain. There are five sections to the bibliography: (1) national newspapers; (2) journals and magazines; (3) pamphlets, books and contributions to books; (4) overseas; (5) dissertations and theses. Each section is preceded by a brief explanation. Taken together the sections do not constitute a bibliography of everything that has been written about the Open University, but should provide a good starting point. (Author/KE)
