Osana Parteco-tutkimushanketta on julkaistu yhteisöjen tuottaman sisällön tekijänoikeuksia ja liiketoimintamalleja käsittelevä suomalainen kirja, englanniksi: Community Created Content – Law, Business and Policy.
Designing services that harness the wealth of their users’ creativity is not trivial. Finding a balance between exclusive copyright and open has turned out to bea delicate task. The book “Community Created Content” is written to help its readers to understand the legal, business and policy issues affecting community created content. The aim was to write a handy reference and a useful overview of a complex subject. Main emphasis is on the legal underpinnings of community created content. The book also describes users’ different motives of sharing their works. Several case studies help to illustrate how businesses can adapt to accommodate community created content.
The book will be available to purchase through Turre Publishing, Amazon.com and as a free pdf download. (2 mb download, be patient)
