Overview

What is the CC BY requirement in the TAACCCT grant?

Open Licensing Requirement forTAACCCT Rounds 1, 2 & 3

“as a condition of the receipt of a TAACCCT grant, the grantee will be required to license to the public (not including the Federal Government) all work created with the support of the grant (Work) under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 (CC BY) license. Work that must be licensed under the CCBY includes both new content created with the grant funds and modifications made to pre-existing, grantee-owned content using grant funds.”

SGA, Round 2 (p. 8 / Section I.D.5 )

FAQ: What if we are buying commercial content with grant funds? Do we have to license it

CC BY?

“Only work that is developed by the grantee with the grant funds is required to be licensed under the CC BY license. Pre-existing copyrighted materials licensed to, or purchased by the grantee from third parties, including modifications of such materials, remain subject to the intellectual property rights the grantee receives under the terms of the particular license or purchase. In addition, works created by the grantee without grant funds do not fall under the CC BY license requirement.”

FAQ: What if we have a mix of our own content plus proprietary

licensed materials?

My project is a mix of my own + third party works – CC licensed

and proprietary.

1)How do I apply the CC BY license in this case?2)How do I give credit to the third parties?

1)Change the CC BY license notice to:

Except otherwise noted, this work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.

Then, make sure to note those materials that are governed by different terms.

You can do this on a separate credits page at the end of the resource. Example

You can also note it right next to the material. Example

That depends. Is the third party material CC licensed or proprietary?

If proprietary, give credit how you usually do. (We can’t tell you how to do this.)

If it’s CC licensed, here are some tips!

When attributing a CC licensed work, use this acronym:

ASL

FAQ: Who do we put as the author of our materials (eg. consortium,

college, faculty)?

Up to your consortium or college’s policy. Grant doesn’t stipulate.

FAQ: How do we credit the U.S. DOL as a funder of our materials?

See Section I.D.6 of the Round 2 SGA: Required Disclaimer for Grant Deliverables

“The grantee must include the following language on all Work developed in whole or in part with grant funds…”

“This product was funded by a grant awarded by the U.S. Department of Labor’s Employment and Training Administration. The product was created by the grantee and does not necessarily reflect the official position of the U.S. Department of Labor. The Department of Labor makes no guarantees, warranties, or assurances of any kind, express or implied, with respect to such information, including any information on linked sites and including, but not limited to, accuracy of the information or its completeness, timeliness, usefulness, adequacy, continued availability, or ownership.”

Required Disclaimer for Grant Deliverables (p. 9)

This is separate from and has nothing to do with the CC BY license notice.

You can include it in the same section where you usually add your disclaimers or notices.

More FAQs

FAQ: When are grant materials required to be publicly available?

At the end of the grant. Please consult your DOL federal program officer for details.

FAQ: Should our materials be in a final version before being made

available?

They don’t have to be! We encourage sharing drafts to avoid duplicate efforts by other grantees.

FAQ: Can we change the license on the materials after the project

has ended?

If it was created with grant funds, it must be under the CC BY license.

Any future versions created without grant funds can be licensed separately, but must include attribution to the original CC BY licensed version.

FAQ: We are meeting resistance from faculty and others around

opening materials. What steps can I take?

Remind them it is required by the grant!

If that doesn’t help, we have talking points we can send you about the benefits of opening up publicly funded materials. Email [email protected].

FAQ: I can’t remember all this. Where can I go when I’m actually

applying the CC BY license?
