For ExampleWikipedia recently migrated its licensing structure from the GNU Free Documentation License to a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license. The world’s largest and most cited collaborative encyclopedia made this move via a community vote and for good reason. By changing to a CC BY-SA license, Wikipedia (and the entire collection of Wikimedia sites) allows content to legally flow in and out of the site with ease, enabling one of the great cultural resources of the digital revolution to legally interact with an endless array of similar cultural institutions.

The Licences

Sure it’s easier and quicker just to go to Google images and find the most popular or immediately recognisable images. Nevertheless, it is much smarter and more original to use something that shows off your ability to think, be original and go outside the square. Decipher the message below.

DON’T BE LAZY. BE CREATIVE.

What was that website again?

About QuickmarkQuickmark is a program that can be downloaded from the internet and is installed on the DER laptops.

This program scans QR codes, such as the one on the previous slide and the ones on the following slide.

Once scanned, the program will open up the link to whatever material it is coded with. The program will also remember the link so that it is not lost.

If you are having problems using the program on the first generation of DER Lenovos (the very small red ones) this is because there seems to be a problem with these computers or the version of program installed on them.

Importantly, once you have opened the program go to the two cogs icon, open this and make sure that both boxes are ticked, then click ok.

The Dalek Conquest of the

UniverseBy Geoff Lowe

The Daleks hate everyone and travel throughout the universe.

On many worlds there have been attempts to fight the Daleks and halt their ceaseless conquest and destruction.

Nevertheless, on world after world the Daleks have won the fight and consolidated their forces at terrible cost.

The centre of operations for the Daleks is the bunker, savagely guarded by Daleks, on the planet Gardic .

It was when the Daleks came up against the most powerful force in the universe on the planet Earth that the end came for the Dalek conquest of the universe.

Long live the librarians
