Need an Introduction?

• Easy Introduction

This month's line-up:

• David Strauss, is the co-founder of Four Kitchen Studios and That Other Paper. ThatOtherPaper.com is a local paper which produces all of its content under Creative Commons licensing. David will be discussing his involvement in the Open Library project, which explains itself as "One web page for every book ever published. It's a lofty, but achievable, goal." www.openlibrary.org

• Anyone with questions about Creative Commons can attend and we'll try to answer any questions or discuss aspects of CC licensing.

• As time permits, we will also have a discussion on a recent "orphan works" law introduced to Congress. I will also have some copies of Cory Doctorow's "Print Crime", a Creative Commons work of fiction, and a few DVDs of recent large musical and sound works recently released to the public.
