%X	Open educational resources are digital materials that can be re-used for teaching, learning, research and more, made available free through open licenses, which allow uses of the materials that would not be easily permitted under copyright alone. This material is available in different formats. Different forms of OER have different characteristics and uses. Learning objects is one of the important form of OER. The need to take classroom-based instruction, materials, and information to create a low-cost, high quality instruction in a web- based format has given way to the concept of Learning Objects (LOs).
A learning object repository provides faculty, teachers, curriculum developers and students with easy access to a large storehouse of content/ learning objects that can be shared and used within and across schools, colleges and universities, and state agencies.

In the repositories the learning objects are stored according to their disciplines with metadata as title description, type, author, creation date, updated date, technical requirements, copyright information and keywords for search. To select appropriate learning object for students it is essential to evaluate the quality of learning objects. In the present study an attempt has been made to determine quality of available Learning Objects.
