Development of Creative Commons licenses

[Dipesh Navsaria <dipesh AT navsaria.com>]

Greetings all.  I have a question about how to handle a situation  
that may be coming up for me soon.

I am writing a guide for laypeople on choosing children's books in  
accordance with developmental principles.  As part of this, my plan  
was to use occasional images (1-2 pages) from well-known children's  
books to illustrate examples as well as quotes.  When this is  
completed, I'd like to be able to place it under a CC license and  
make it a freely downloadable PDF.

Now, since this is partially being done for academic credit, I don't  
have any doubt that using the copyrighted image excerpts and quotes  
comes clearly under "Fair Use" for the purposes of submitting it to  
an instructor.  However, what about placing it under CC and making it  
freely available?

o Does this still come under Fair Use?  (I know, I know, thorny  
question.)

o Let's assume that it is Fair Use for a moment: how can I clearly  
indicate that while the document is CC-licensed, some of the images/ 
quotes within it are copyrighted material?  Can I still distribute it  
under a CC-license?

This feels not all that different from a situation where I would  
submit this for scholarly publication, except that I'm not sure if  
I'm supposed to attempt to seek permissions or not.  What if it was a  
CC-using journal?  What would happen then?

I'm open to any discussion on the topic -- right now I'm mostly just  
confused.

Thanks!

Peace and Prosperity,
Dipesh
