Things to think about
Before using CC material:• Check that you’re following the licence
(ask for extra permission if necessary)• Do you need any other rights?• Make sure your use isn’t ‘derogatory’• Use common sense • Don’t forget to attribute

Things to think about
Before using CC licences:

• Are you choosing the right licence? eg do you want them to be able to change your material?
• Do you have the rights to license the material? Are you using anyone else’s material?
