Creative Commons to launch Science Commons
The Creative Commons is launching a similar project with respect to scientific papers, the Science Commons. It is set to launch Jan. 01, 2005.
The mission of Science Commons is to encourage scientific innovation by making it easier for scientists, universities, and industries to use literature, data, and other scientific intellectual property and to share their knowledge with others. Science Commons works within current copyright and patent law to promote legal and technical mechanisms that remove barriers to sharing.
