About this book

Creative Commons introduces copyright, public domain tools and open licensing for educators and librarians. The book explains how the licences work, what their conditions mean and how to choose, apply and respect them when sharing or adapting material.

Five chapters move from the history of Creative Commons and the basics of copyright law to licence design, reuse and practical applications in libraries and education. Examples address attribution, collections and remixes, open access scholarship and open educational resources. The original illustrations, resource lists and index are retained in this complete ALA edition, which bears a 2020 imprint and was announced as available in December 2019.
