Dear colleagues,

We hope that this email finds you well. 

On January 1, 2021, and throughout the month of January, Creative Commons (CC) is celebrating Public Domain Day, welcoming copyright works into the public domain, where they become freely available for the public to use, reuse and modify. 

As part of our Open Culture / GLAM program’s celebration of Public Domain Day, we are delighted to invite you to help create a clearer picture of cultural heritage institutions’ (or “GLAMs”) understanding, uses, needs and issues related to CCs’ public domain tools, CC0 and the Public Domain Mark (PDM), by taking a short survey. 

→ Take our survey in English. 

→ Répondez à notre sondage en français.

→ Responde a nuestra encuesta en español.

Your institution has made its mark through open practices, and we would be grateful if you could share your needs, wishes and expectations regarding our tools with us. Your answers will inform CC’s license stewardship mandate and ensure the tools continue to respond to GLAMs’ concrete needs. We would be most grateful if you could please fill this survey before 31 January, 2022. 

Help us reach out to institutions from around the world: please share this call for information widely with your networks. Here’s a sample tweet in English, French and Spanish.

Do you want to know more about CC’s activities related to open culture/open GLAM and those of the open GLAM community? Join the Creative Commons Open GLAM Platform by filling out this membership form and joining our mailing list. 

We remain at your disposal for any further information. 

Kind regards, 

Brigitte & Camille
