## Choice of licence

For the re-sharing of Open Educational Resources, or the sharing of self-made materials, the material must be provided with a Creative Commons licence. See section, 'Reusing Open Educational Resources-Creative Commons Licences for more information on this.
The following should be taken into account when choosing the licence:

- The institution's prescribed licence

Institutions may prescribe a specific licence. At Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences, there is currently no publication policy for this.

- Reuse of several Open Educational Resources

If materials with different licences have been reused within the new material you wish to share, this will have an effect on the new licence. There are two options here:
1. Name the licences separately for each reused material.
2. If the entire work is to be given a single licence, the licences of reused materials must be compared to determine what is possible.
At Rotterdam University of Applied Sciences we advise the use of a CC BY licence, so it remains visible which people/institutions have contributed to the material.
