Hello:
We are a non-profit children's book publishing house based in
Bangalore, India and have previously released a few books under a CC -
license:

However, internally we have now been discussing moving all our books
to a CC-BY license for a number of reasons. A question that has arisen
is whether we then need to provide access to the 'source' files of our
books and if so, in what format? Would it suffice if the source files
were in PDF? Or would it suffice if we made available the source files
on a platform [1] that allowed for the creation of derivative works.
Your thoughts would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Best,
Gautam
