Creative Commons aims to establish a fair middle way between the extremes of copyright control and the uncontrolled uses of intellectual property. It provides a range of copyright licences, freely available to the public, which allow those creating intellectual property – including authors, artists, educators and scientists – to mark their work with the freedoms they want it to carry.
Digital technologies offer new opportunities for making and accessing creative work of all kinds, and digital self-publishing is rapidly expanding across the world - from musicians, filmmakers and designers to universities, museums and libraries.
