Introduction

Whether openly licensed or not, all resources need to be referenced properly. As we saw earlier, Section 27 of the new Myanmar Copyright Act also requires you to reference any material that you are permitted to use for educational purposes.

This section looks at what information we need to reference CC-licensed resources. In Unit 5 we look at how to reference different uses of openly licensed materials, for example, where we are permitted to make changes to a resource or in instances where we combine different openly licensed materials (perhaps with our own work) to create a new resource. We will also see that the information we use to attribute others is also the information we need to include when we apply an open license to our own work.
