Hi all,
Some big news: Te Papa have released 30,000 high resolution images under either a no known copyright or CC-BY-NC-ND licence
13,000 have the CC licence;17,000 are public domain.
While there are obviously some issues with the more restrictive licence, I think this is an extremely positive step. Coupled with last week's NLNZ announcement and some other work around releasing WW1 images, the NZ heritage sector is making massive strides towards openness.
Adrian Kingston has written a blog about this: http://blog.tepapa.govt.nz/2014/06/03/free-downloadable-images-from-te-papas...
