Hi Everyone,
Sharing links to the training on understanding copyright and open licenses put on by Shanna Hollich from Creative Commons. You can download, view, and see more info about the video via Zenodo here: link. Alternately, you can stream here at variable definitions if you have bandwidth limitations: link.
For those unable to attend, this training walked us through the management of research outputs, including data licensing and copyright. It also aimed to equip participants with the knowledge and best practices they need to effectively navigate the complexities of Creative Commons (CC) licensing and copyright when using and generating research outputs such as scholarly publications, datasets, and white papers.
By the end of the workshop, participants developed an understanding of the basic principles of copyright, how it works, and where it applies. Participants are now able to describe the benefits of open licensing and the basics of how Creative Commons licenses work, have a deeper understanding of how research outputs interact with copyright and open licensing, and know where to find additional information and resources.
You can also view the slides from the presentation via this link from the presentation.
