U.S. State Department, Federal Open Licensing Playbook (Jan. 2016) (full-text).
Overview[]
This Playbook provides a practitioner's guide to using open licenses in the federal context, based on the shared experience. It is not intended to be prescriptive but rather to offer expertise and lessons-learned to federal grants managers interested in exploring or using openly licensed resources as a component of their programs. The Plays are sequential, addressing different stages of program formation. This Playbook ranges from Plays on standards and usability, to training and funding models, to monitoring and sustainability.
The first draft of this Playbook was developed by the Subcommittee on Global Education of the Advisory Committee to the Secretary of State's Strategic Dialogue with Civil Society. It includes input from multiple federal agencies, as well as private sector and civil society organizations.
