Creative Commons: Use material from others and share material yourself

Creative Commons is an international license system based on copyright. It declares how others can use my copyrighted material. And that makes it easy for me to see how I can use material from others.

You can get practical tips about choosing a license on the University of Gothenburg’s website Publishing your own material.

You will find further information on the University Library’s page on copyright in teaching and open educational resources (OER).

In this Swedish-language video (4 min.) you get a simple explanation of how copyright and creative commons licenses works.
