How to Do Things With Creative Commons Licenses: Interpreting, Using, and Licensing Work, Led by Dylan Mohr
Description: Creative Commons Licenses (CCLs) are everywhere, but why? What are they and what do they do? Why would you use one for your own work, and how can you reuse other works under CCLs? At this session, participants will learn about the anatomy of a CCL and what uses each license allows. Registrants will learn how CCLs work with US copyright law (and beyond). The workshop will prepare scholars, students, and staff to feel confident applying and interpreting CCLs in their work and scholarship.
Intended Audience: Graduate Students, Faculty, Staff
