A colleague recently suggested the value of putting out short tidbits of information about copyright on a regular basis as a way to educate a community and keep attention focused on copyright issues and opportunities. It seemed like such a good idea that this site will begin carrying such short information briefs (called widgets in honor of my colleague’s affection for that word) each Thursday (I hope).
All of this site is placed under a Creative Commons license (Attribution, non-commercial, no derivative works), but it seems appropriate to explicitly offer these informational widgets for reposting to other academic communities if they seem helpful.
These widgets will be collected under the more descriptive blog category of “copyright information notes,” with the hope that they will cumulate into a helpful review.
Excellent idea, Kevin! I’ll check weekly to see how the widgets multiply. Roger
That is a great idea, and seems to be working well. ^_^ I wonder how I missed your blog earlier!
