If CC-BY works, then just use it. Doing otherwise has a direct negative impact on the whole of the scholarly world.

Comment: this is a bit of a stretch. Scholarship has been happening for a very long time, while Creative Commons has only been around for about 10 years and is currently used for a minority of scholarly works produced at present (a smaller minority if only CC-BY works are counted).

Note that you did not take the time to CC license your e-mail. This means that it falls under automatic copyright under the Berne Convention. Your words are All Rights Reserved. Can you explain how this has "a direct negative impact on the whole of the scholarly world"?

I submit that this is a bit of a stretch.

best,

Heather Morrison
