An aspect of this vision is use of appropriate licences which encourage greater use and reuse of its resources, across the HE community and within the wider community. We will encourage take-up of such licences within the sector. We will engage in discussion within the sector to ensure the community is better informed of the potential benefits and can provide feedback on concerns. This debate will lead to the development of a model for openness which can maximise benefits within identified constraints
