CC-US LogoAmerican University Washington College of Law’s Program on Information Justice and Intellectual Property (PIJIP) is proud to announce that it is the new home of Creative Commons United States (CC US). CC US is the U.S. volunteer affiliate in the Creative Commons Affiliate Network.

CC US promotes understanding of sharing through open licensing and other issues related to uses of Creative Commons licenses in the United States. To find out more about CC licenses, click here. CC US also gives sustained attention to U.S.-specific policy and legal developments affecting the commons, such as state government support for the development of Open Educational Resources. We provide outreach, education, and support to local organizations and communities that use (or could use) the Creative Commons license suite.
