Open Educational Resources (OER), adhering to the open and sharing concept, is becoming a hot topic all over the world. Since OER was officially defined at the Forum on Open Courseware for Higher Education in Developing Countries in 2002, was soon introduced to China and popularized among scholars. It is important to learn how far China has moved forward in this global OER movement. Social networking analysis (SNA) method was adapted to analysis for the citation of journal papers about Chinese OER.
