So how do we do that? What can we, as IT, curatorial or learning staff,
do to close the circular arguments and move things forward?
We can work to quantify the number of works with unknown or unclear
licences, those with known but external copyright, and those with known
copyright held internally; but what then? For example, do you have any
information on possible licences for typical museum copyright scenarios?
Or on how we could publish under a CC licence that's compatible with our
internal requirements?
