Around the globe there are a number of initiatives which are being experimented in the development of OER. This paper is a case study of the development of a gateway application for the OER material to enhance the teaching and research capability of the University of Swaziland. The development of the desktop OER gateway and the conversion of such a gateway into mobile application gateway are discussed in this paper.
