Final remarks

When applying a CC licence to a work, you should:

  • use the CC licence chooser to determine which CC licence best meets your needs (apply the licence code if possible, or copy/paste the text and links provided)
  • (if you are using an online platform) use the built-in CC licence tools to mark your work with a CC licence
  • mark your work and give proper attribution to others’ works using the TASL approach.

There is no single answer for which CC licence is the best. Before making your CC licence choice it is important to remember why you are sharing and what you hope others might do with your work.
