CC and HEFCEs Community

• HEFCE has a role in supporting the wider
  community.
• How might Creative Commons licences be applicable
  to this community including
• HEIs
• HEFCE agencies (e.g. JISC, UCAS, .)
• Other stakeholders (e.g. SHEF, DENI, commercial
  providers, media companies, )
• What barriers may there be?
• How can HEFCE help to overcome such barriers?

A Vision

• The higher education community can benefit
  greatly from a culture of openness throughout its
  teaching learning, research and administrative
  functions.
• An aspect of this vision is use of appropriate
  licences which encourage greater use and reuse of
  its resources, across the HE community and within
  the wider community.
• We will encourage take-up of such licences within
  the sector.
• We will engage in discussion within the sector to
  ensure the community is better informed of the
  potential benefits and can provide feedback on
  concerns.
• This debate will lead to the development of a
  model for openness which can maximise benefits
  within identified constraints
