Attribution is required when an openly licensed work is...
- redistributed
- reused
- remixed
- revised
Attribution should include...
- T = Title*
- A = Author (tell reusers who to give credit to)
- S = Source (give reusers a link to the resource)
- L = License (link to the CC license deed)
If the work was updated, remixed, or changed, that must be noted in the attribution.
*The title is not required in attribution for version 4.0 of the licenses, but it is still good practice to include when available.
Attribution Is Not a Choice
Open licenses are a contract. All Creative Commons licenses require detailed attribution for use. Failure to do so breaks that contract.
