Two carved Halloween pumpkins with glowing candlelight inside, placed on a reflective surface in a dark setting. The left pumpkin has an angry, jagged grin and slanted eyes, while the right pumpkin has a wide smile with vertical teeth and round eyes.

Great article! My take is that more needs to be done to increase awareness among authors. In Open Science community engagement, we always see/learn of the lack of knowledge around licensing. And now with the advent of LLMs, CC-BY could easily be abused.

Who owns open knowledge? The two types of licence to consider when making books open access When a more restrictive open access licence is applied to a book, who gets to make decisions about usage that falls outside the open licence?

[BLOG] Continuing last week's #OAWeek theme @alittleroad.bsky.social has written about #OA licences for books πŸ“š

❓Who owns open knowledge?
❓What are the implications of different types of open licence?
❓Who makes decisions about reuse in the case of more restrictive licences?
