There are many free materials available on the Internet that you can reuse for your work, or in general for your own creations. But it’s not always easy to find them, or even to recognize them. Welcome to the world of free works: let’s see what they are, how we can recognize them, and how we can find them. We also talk about how to make your own works free, and what (positive and negative) implications this may have for you.

Among other topics, we cover the following:

• Copying and reusing is not (necessarily) bad
• What are free works?
• Can I use a free work in my projects?
• The main free licenses
• Finding free works: images
• Finding free works: audio
• Finding free works: videos
• Finding free works: other elements
• How to make my work free (and what I gain from it)

Resources:

• The activity will take place via videoconference. All you need is a web browser (Firefox, Chrome…).

• Slides: PDF, ODP format for LibreOffice.

• Posters: horizontal format (PDF, source document for LibreOffice), vertical format (PDF, source document for LibreOffice)

This is a mini-workshop, held in the context of El Concilio de lo Libre, with the participation of the Free Software Office of the University of Granada, the Free Software Office of the Complutense University of Madrid, and OfiLibre of Rey Juan Carlos University.
