Creative Commons licensing “encourages content contributors to think in terms of a librarian keeping in mind the public benefit of providing maximum access to content as part of Australia’s national collection.”
– Fiona Hooton, Picture Australia
Model
• Dual licensing:
– one licence for institution (standard agreement)
– one licence determining how material can be made available to public
• Can make CC licensing optional or compulsory, all licences or only some, with public domain or all rights reserved.

“If your organisation is still having doubts about the value of making available un-edited, un-verified, ageing tombstone data then it is worth showing examples like these.”
- Seb Chan
Before using CC licences
• Who do you want to use the material, and when? eg global
• Are you choosing the right licence? eg do you want them to be able to change your material?
• Do you have the rights to license the material? are you using anyone else’s material?
• Are you sure? can't change your mind
