+Except views knowledge-sharing as an integral part of its ultimate goal: creating the foundation for a sustainable future. CC-licensing allows us to more easily reach people and share ideas across geographic and disciplinary boundaries. We believe that CC provides the legal framework to spread our solutions, vision-documents, and in-house integrated approach beyond company clients to practitioners and interested parties worldwide. In this sense, we regard Creative Commons as a building block for a sustainable society (and our gratitude is abundant).

In the Schiebroek-Zuid project, Except was able to quickly create a database of CC-licensed images for the project vision books. The more CC images Except is able to use, the more time is made available for research, analysis, and creative ventures -- which in turn Except can then share through Creative Commons licensing.
