Curious about copyright and open content licensing? Creative Commons is conducting a series of free seminars beginning 5 October

Creative Commons and the Digital Economy | Creative Commons Australia Creative Commons Australia, through its stewardship of the Creative Commons licences in Australia, plays a leading role in enabling copyright to be actively managed to give effect to Open Access initiatives.

Unfortunately, our team at QUT cannot continue running the IPTLC monthly advice sessions, as we will be taking up positions elsewhere.

However, please note that those in need of assistance on intellectual property law matters may still apply for pro bono referral through our project partner the Queensland Public Interest Law Clearing House (QPILCH) (www.qpilch.org.au).

We extend our thanks to all the lawyers, volunteers and students for their generous contribution of time and effort to the IPTLC. It has been a pleasure to work with such a committed and supportive group of people.
