Re: [Canadaoer] Creative Commons Question

Hi Heather, The NC clause refers only to the use, not to the entity. So even though her practice may be a commercial entity, the use of handing out patient education materials, to me, seems to be a non-commercial purpose. If there is no payment or compensation directly connected with the exchange, then you should be in the clear.

I have a question about a CC-BY-NC license. This module from NOBA carries that license (https://nobaproject.com/modules/the-nervous-system). I’m married to a chiropractor who would like to take content from the book and put it into some patient education materials to provide to patients for free. Her practice is obviously a business and she’s paid by patients for care, but not for the patient education materials. Can she still take content from this module for this purpose? I’m unsure so want to check. Thank you. Heather M. Ross (B.A., B.Ed., M.Ed.)
