CREATIVE COMMONS

Creative Commons is a nonprofit organization that works to increase the amount of creativity (cultural, educational, and scientific content) in “the commons” -- the body of work that is available to the public for free and legal sharing, use, repurposing, and remixing. The organization has released several copyright licenses known as “Creative Commons licenses,” which allow creators to communicate which rights they reserve and which they wave for the benefit of recipients or other creators. This topic covers the latest news and controversial response to the company’s work.

Creative Commons is part of Business Exchange, suggested by Isaac Sacolick. This topic contains 154 news and 494 blog items. Read updated news, blogs, and resources about Creative Commons. Find user-submitted articles and reactions on Creative Commons from like-minded professionals.
