Currently this is a scratchpad for referencing known uses of CC licensing and material in the GLAM sector: "Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums". Please add to the list and turn compelling uses into Case Studies.
Contents
Galleries
Libraries
Fundamental Scientific Library of the National Academy of Science of Armenia
- maintains two open access journals, the Armenian Journal of Mathematics and Armenian Journal of Physics, both of which are under Creative Commons Attribution licences.
The National Library of Australia
- license a large range of their internal documents/policies under CC, mainly through their Open Publish initiative (see background paper)
- encourage donors to use CC as part of their Flickr-based PictureAustralia initiative
- incorporate Wikipedia descriptions and crowdsourced text-correction in their Newspapers Online Australia initiative (see slides here and here)
- incorporate CC licensed material (and in particular photographs) into their digital storytelling collection
Anecdotal evidence suggests that some University libraries offer Creative Commons licensing options in their Institutional Repositories. More research is required in this field.
