San Andreas Chapter Copyright Policy

The San Andreas Chapter Board has recently approved the following policy about copyright of items written for the blog. This will be linked in the sidebar for future reference.

Copyright for articles, book reviews, etc. on the San Andreas Chapter blog:

1. Author's copyright automatically applies to all content. While this is assumed, to be on the safe side, authors who want to retain copyright should add a copyright statement to the end of their work (© 2007 Helen Josephine All Rights Reserved).

2. To clarify the rights reserved under the copyright, it is strongly encouraged that authors apply for a free Creative Commons License for their individual works. These licenses have several levels of restriction including: no commercial reuse, no remix or changing of content, and sharing only with attribution of the creative commons license.

Apply for a Creative Commons license at: http://www.creativecommons.org

In the tools section there is a link to a plug in for Microsoft Office to automatically add a Creative Commons License to a document created in MSWord: http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Microsoft_Office_Addin

Please direct any questions with respect to this policy to the board. Thank you.
