DPLA Best Practices Part I

  We all need a best practice so let's look briefly at DPLA with good reason.



Metadata made available is done under Creative Commons Zero (CCO) Public Domain Dedication 

Which means you can use the metadata

So here are the Guidelines

  1. Give credit --others need to be able to reuse data---remember interoperability
  2. Data can and does change-not static,keep a hyper-link to know updates
  3. Don't mislead or misrepresent-need I say more
  4. At your own risk-"as is" metadata offered and conform to local laws
So that is it in a nut shell...check the policy for more specific information ....
