I had a list put together by Otago Poly's library of all the books, papers, articles, and other artifacts created by people from Otago Polytechnic. It is quite large. Next step is to have a service like Archive.org digitise it all and serve it under CC BY [author]/Otago Poly... well, the step/s before that is to look carefully at the content and negotiate with the authors... Listen to the interview I made with Archive.org regarding their willingness to digitise and serve for free. NZ Archive needs to be talking with these guys.

This is great . Well done Otago – and I agree, we totally need a register, or set of pointers,  to what is available on the CC front in NZ.

I also think that the main heritage/memory/ cultural/ educational  institutions should be scouring their collections and figuring out what digital pieces [ images/sound/film etc/ courseware] they can put into the cc domain  -

I personally will be doing all the lobbying I can to achieve this – suggest others think of doing the same.

Please do. I think it is important to celebrate early adopters so as to help fend off early nay sayers

This is fantastic news! Since Aotearoa already has a number of
educational and artistic users of CC licenses, would it be useful to
put up a list on cc.org.nz with links where appropriate? This would
give us a pool of people and organisations to contact when we move
from drafting and launching the licenses into promoting them in our
communities.
