Creative Commons Aotearoa New Zealand discussion

[Matt McGregor <Matt.McGregor AT royalsociety.org.nz>]

Hi all,

 

For those following OA developments overseas, this might be of interest: The British Academy of H&SS has published a series of eight articles on ‘Debating Open Access.’ Not all of the arguments are entirely coherent, though it’s a quite useful survey of the attitudes of a select group of humanities and social sciences academics towards OA: http://www.britac.ac.uk/openaccess/debatingopenaccess.cfm

 

OAPEN-UK has also published an excellent guide to using Creative Commons licences for H&SS monographs: http://oapen-uk.jiscebooks.org/ccguide/

 

Cheers,

Matt
