Using Creative Commons Licenses and Creative Commons Licensed Works

Abstract

Understanding the difference between collections and derivative works is key to your reuse and adaptation of existing material. It is often useful to create collections and derivative works for educational purposes; for instance, you may wish to compile a collection of articles or adapt an existing educational source to serve as a course text. However, it is not always possible to do both or any, depending on copyright restrictions. This presentation will guide your use and re-use of material that hold a Creative Commons license. In this presentation we will answer the questions What are collections and what are derivative works? We will also provide examples of collections and derivative works, along with providing tools for how to navigate reuse with the adapter\u27s license chart and the license compatibility chart
