Selecting a Licence
To select an appropriate licence from the GILF licence options, it is necessary to complete a licensing review of the material to be licensed.
A licensing review is necessary to identify any intellectual property ownership within the material in addition to other legal and policy considerations, such as privacy and confidentiality. The Licensing Review is a series of questions that result in an appropriate selection of GILF licences suitable to the content of the material.
The Licensing Review provides an interactive process prompting users to consider the essential legal elements for each component in the material. The review has three basic steps:
-
Identifying the material you wish to licence.
-
Answering questions about the components (or inputs) of the work.
-
Determining the type of licence to apply to the material.
Using the Licensing Review on this website, provides the user with a streamlined method for selecting the appropriate GILF Licence.
