Hi Ted,

Is there some reason why you wouldn't want to cut and paste the text from one of our online licenses into the text of your book? Or are you looking for a specific format for the art, perhaps? If this doesn't already exist, it sounds like a great idea. I'll look into it.

Regarding derivative works, yes, you can simply check "no" and your license will not allow your work to be modified.

You should check out our license options at:
http://www.creativecommons.org

Please also check out our faq at:

Just so you know, this isn't quite a metadata question -- but I'm always happy to answer any other non-metadata detailed questions you may have off of the metadata list.

Thanks,

lisa

I'd like to use a creative commons license for a book that I am releasing in pdf format (see http://www.ChristianMysteries.info). Will you have available soon some form of words and graphic logo that I can insert directly into the book?


The license I'll use is the one that requires attribution and prohibits derivatives. I'd like to be able to say somethin in the book to the effect that the license does allow users to copy the text freely so long as it is unaltered, etc. but I wondered whether you were planning to give or approve some language to that effect?
