What are the barriers to open culture? Here’s what the CC community has to say
Summary
What challenges do cultural heritage institutions — such as galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMs) — face in making their collections openly accessible online? How could Creative Commons support institutions in addressing these challenges and taking part in better sharing of cultural heritage? You can watch what they told us in our CC Open Culture VOICES vlog series. Or is this truly an open culture that can be accessed anywhere, anytime by all people around the world?” — Temi Odumosu We identified three main clusters of barriers: • Money : lack of resources and fear of losing revenue from licensing; • People : lack of appropriate knowledge and skills, together with a host of apprehensions and risk aversion; • Policy : a complex and outdated copyright system, and the absence of a positive policy framework encouraging openness.
