The BBC’s Creative Archive Project: New Approaches to Accessing Creative Content
with Paula Le Dieu

Garden’s Point Theatre, QUT, 5.30pm to 7.00pm
Wednesday, 2 March 2005

The BBC’s announcement that it will release archived material under Creative Commons styled licences has captured worldwide attention. Paula Le Dieu has been at the centre of this development and will present an overview of the BBC’s Creative Archive initiative which aims to ensure greater community access to material held in the BBC’s archives. The talk will provide an opportunity for consideration of alternative approaches to managing digital copyright and will build on the very successful Creative Commons Conference held at QUT in January 2005, headlined by Professor Lawrence Lessig.
