UK IPO links to Creative Commons licences

January 29th, 2008 · 1 Comment

I’m doing some research for a course on entrepreneurship and IP, and so I’m reviewing the materials available on the UK Intellectual Property Office (UK IPO). Their short and sweet description of copyright licensing includes a link to Creative Commons:

Some people prefer to allow limited access to their work without charge. One way to do this is by using a Creative Commons licence.

I thought that was pretty neat, though I’d like to see some description of open content licensing within the UK IPO site in order to give their users an orientation to what the CC licences are and how they work.

    That is pretty cool to have CC acknowledged like that. Great find. :-)
