Open Data

Prepared by the Open Knowledge Foundation, "This handbook introduces you to the legal, social and technical aspects of open data. It can be used by anyone but is especially useful for those working with government data. It discusses the why, what and how of open data – why to go open, what open is, and the how to do open." (from the website)

Useful guide prepared by JISC (UK) for researchers wishing to release their data.

Handy tool to help you select the Creative Commons license that is right for you (and your data).
