Myers, Carla S.
Copyright permeates almost every aspect of the creation and use of Open Educational Resources (OER). Given academic librarians role in championing the OER movement and promoting the ethical and responsible re-use of information, students and faculty are often turning to librarians for answers about copyright compliance when creating and using OER. This interactive webcast will help prepare academic librarians to assist patrons in addressing a variety of issues.

An Introduction to the Creative Commons
Myers, Carla S.
Creative Commons (CC) licenses provide those creating copyrightable
works with an opportunity to outline terms under which others can reuse them, eliminating the
need for users to seek permission for their use of the work. With over one billion CC licensed
works available online; chances are good that librarians and patrons encounter these works
frequently. Unfortunately there are many myths and misconceptions surround the CC licenses.
In this webinar, we will work to sort fact from fiction by exploring each of the seven licenses in-
depth, reviewing relevant court cases to see what they tell us about the use of CC licensed
works, and explore best practices for licensing our own works under CC licenses and helping our
patrons to do the same.
