    Core Webinar: Deep Dive into Creative Commons Licensing

    Part 2 of 4-Part Webinar Series: Creative Commons

     

    Date: Tuesday, March 19, 2024

    All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11 am Pacific, noon Mountain, 1 pm Central, and 2 pm Eastern time.

     

    Description: In this webinar from Creative Commons, you will learn all the details of Creative Commons licenses. Creative Commons offers six different open licenses and two additional legal tools. Participants will learn how the licenses and legal tools work together to provide the foundation for the open movement, giving creators far more control over their works than traditional copyright law allows.

     

    Learning outcomes: 

    At the end of the webinar, attendees will be able to: 

    • Describe each of the six different Creative Commons licenses.

    • Describe the two Creative Commons legal tools and how they differ from the licenses.

    • Understand how CC licenses work with copyright law to give creators more freedom and control.

    Who should attend?  

    This webinar is geared towards any librarian from any library type and in any role that is interested in open access, OER, Wikipedia, open science, open data, and any other aspect of the open movement made possible through Creative Commons licensing.

     

    Presenters:

    As Learning and Training Manager, Shanna Hollich supports all of CC's programs and projects by identifying and developing professional development and learning opportunities that are relevant to CC's mission, including (but not limited to) the CC Certificates. Prior to joining CC, Shanna worked for 15 years as a librarian across multiple institutions - K-12 school, public, government, and academic. They have worked in public/access services, technical services and cataloging/metadata, and administration, ultimately serving as director for the John Stewart Memorial Library at Wilson College and the Guthrie Memorial Library in Hanover, PA. Their research during this time primarily involved copyright reform, cultural heritage, open access, open education, and social justice.

     

    Prior to CC, Jennryn Wetzler worked on open policy and open educational resources (OER) at the U.S. Department of State, piloting OER use for public diplomacy and global partnerships. She’s also enjoyed gaining a different perspective of education through international development work in Thailand and Niger. Jennryn has a Masters in ‘Ethics, Peace, and Global Affairs’ from American University’s School for International Service. She currently lives in Maryland with her husband Nick, and kids. Jennryn enjoys yoga, podcasts and feeding her more daring friends cooking experiments.
