FAIR Friday Online Seminar on “Creative Commons Licenses and FAIR Data” – Helmholtz Metadata Collaboration

The lecture provides guidance on how to achieve the FAIR principles for research data in a legal sense by using Creative Commons licences and
public domain tools. The main topics include the protectability of various types of content and how protected and non- protected content and data
can be "opened" in terms of enabling legal reusability. The lecture also explains the different layers of CC licenses, including the human-readable
and legalese versions, as well as the technical layer of the licenses.
