Thing 23: Creatively Common...

     Well, I guess those pictures that I used earlier in some of my posts were stolen. Such a terrible way to put it, but I guess it's true. I never usually think twice about taking an image from Google. But after reading about Creative Commons, I learned that I am not the only person who seems to unintentionally steal pictures; hence the title "creatively common."
     In fact, this website is not even an APSU-inspired website. It stemmed from another website's idea for librarians. But since it held a CC license, we are able to use it. Information like this is what helps educate our students and potential teachers. As long as we continue to inform each other about CC licensing, there will be no miscommunication about copyrighting. Hopefully, I can pass it on.. ;)

Yours,
TPlummer
