The twillo-Thurs­day is the open online con­sul­ta­tion hour about Open Edu­ca­tional Resources (#OERde). Every Thurs­day from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., you can dis­cuss your ques­tions with our lawyer and the sup­port team in per­son — directly and with­out reg­is­tra­tion. With the twillo-Thurs­day Spot­light, the exist­ing offer is extended by a short, the­mat­i­cally focused legal input. Every 1st Thurs­day of the month, there will be a 15-minute short pre­sen­ta­tion on cur­rent legal issues selected by the com­mu­nity.

The topic of the first twillo-Thurs­day Spot­light is “Rights of use for open licens­ing”. In a prac­ti­cal short input from our lawyer, you will learn which rights are required to openly license a work or to use third-party works in OER. Both legal (e.g. the right to quote) and con­trac­tual usage options and their require­ments are explained.
