> The sorts of information I'd find helpful would include things like:
> Do you use Creative Commons? How much individual choice is allowed in CC
> selection?
>
> Different licenses/copyright claims for different content (faculty blog vs.
> library news & events) or single license for all?
>
> How was the licensing choice made?
>
> Does your University have publication/marketing/web policies that set or
> influence the decision?
>
> Best practices?
>
> Anecdotes, cautions, caveats, etc.?
>
> Thanks for your time and attention. It will be greatly appreciated.
