The power of open culture<\/h2>\n
At Creative Commons, we truly believe in the power of open access to cultural heritage. This type of better sharing helps build and sustain vibrant and thriving societies.<\/p>\n
Recent open culture news: Read our Open Culture Platform 2024 Year in Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n Cultural heritage institutions (CHIs), also known as galleries, libraries, archives and museums (GLAMs) have been the gate openers to the world\u2019s cultural heritage for centuries, and play a fundamental role for the communities that they serve. They provide resources and services for enjoyment, education, research, and the advancement of knowledge, and stimulate creativity and innovation in the service of global sustainable development. By making their collections as openly accessible, shareable, and reusable as possible by the public \u2014 both on-site and online \u2014 they empower people, generation after generation, in offering them the scientific, historical, and socio-cultural resources to build a future for themselves and their communities.<\/p>\n The list of CHIs with open access programs gets longer every day. However, those programs don\u2019t just happen. They build on the experience of pioneering GLAMs<\/a> that set the trend in the early days of the open movement. Unfortunately, today still, GLAMs face many barriers<\/a> in trying to make their collections openly accessible online. Creative Commons strives to support GLAMs in overcoming these barriers to achieve better sharing of cultural heritage.<\/p>\n Over the past decade, the open movement has gained incredible momentum in the cultural heritage sector, accelerated notably by the creation of the CC <\/span>Public Domain Mark<\/span><\/a> and the publication of <\/span>The Problem of the Yellow Milkmaid<\/span><\/a>. This has led to the emergence of \u201copen GLAM,\u201d a movement for galleries, libraries, archives and museums that promotes open access, sharing and reuse of the collections of cultural heritage institutions in the digital environment. At CC we prefer the term \u201copen culture\u201d over \u201copen GLAM,\u201d but we still often use the acronym GLAM to collectively refer to cultural heritage institutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n There are three main reasons behind our use of \u201copen culture.\u201d First, open culture is more readily understandable, as it does not include an acronym that may be unfamiliar to many. Second, it is broader in scope as it envisions open sharing of cultural heritage as a participatory experience in a system that includes GLAMs but also their users, their communities, commercial entities and non-profit sector institutions, as well as society as a whole. Third, open culture encapsulates the synergies between culture as heritage and as contemporary creativity. Open culture\u2019s most exciting potential is to empower creators anywhere in the world to discover, share, reuse and remix cultural heritage. We see open culture as a catalyst for the dissemination and revitalization of culture, a spark for the creation of new cultural expressions and experiences, and an engine for sustainable cultural, economic and social development, where culture as a public good takes center stage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Thanks to the generosity of Arcadia<\/a>, Creative Commons runs the CC Open Culture Program to help build a thriving ecosystem of open culture among cultural heritage institutions and their users. We promote better sharing of knowledge and culture, sharing that is contextual, ethical, inclusive, sustainable, purposeful, and prosocial. Guided by our values of informed intention, global inclusivity, and agile leadership, the program is anchored by four core components.<\/p>\n We take part in activities to reform policy to enable cultural heritage institutions to fulfill their legitimate and public interest missions. This includes continuing to advocate for strong copyright exceptions and limitation; stating the importance of keeping non-original reproductions of public domain works in the public domain; encouraging a purposeful policy discourse celebrating open culture as a positive affirmation of the importance of open access and sharing of cultural materials to the fullest extent possible; and engaging in conversations on the respectful and ethical use of culturally-sensitive materials.<\/p>\n Creative Commons has published two key resources to support open culture policy: the Open Culture Policy Guide<\/em>, which outlines five key actions policymakers can take to enable better sharing, and the Open Culture Policy Paper<\/em>, which provides an overview of the copyright-related challenges facing cultural heritage institutions and their users. Both are available on our resources page.<\/a><\/p>\n Learn more about the Open Heritage Coalition (formerly TAROCH).<\/a><\/p>\n We play our part as stewards of the CC licenses and tools, in particular, the Public Domain Mark<\/a> and Public Domain Dedication Tool<\/a>, and strive to ensure they function properly in the cultural heritage sector. Our Needs Assessment Report on Public Domain Tools in Cultural Heritage Sector (2023)<\/a> offers key insights into\u00a0the unique needs and challenges of the cultural heritage community with regard to our public domain tools.<\/p>\n We support the transformation of cultural heritage institutions by offering training for GLAM professionals who want to engage with open access through the GLAM\/Open Culture Certificate<\/a>, as well as other training and consulting opportunities tailored to their needs.<\/p>\nCultural heritage gate openers<\/h2>\n
