The aim of this project, delivered by JISC Legal, Web2Rights Ltd and Creative Commons UK, is to provide intellectual property rights and licensing support for JISC/HEA funded OER Phase 2 projects, in order to help them identify and manage IPR issues with particular emphasis on the use of Creative Commons Licences. The range of advice and information sources produced are also freely available and of value to other open educational resource projects. A starter pack and diagnostic tools are available, and the website also hosts a blog for the discussion of relevant issues.

The Dead Media Project is a database of reports compiled by members of the Project’s mailing list, who contribute information on means of communication that are now obsolete. It is a characteristic of the Project that among the various comments that each posting generates there is often someone who can report that a supposed Dead Medium is still in use somewhere. Nevertheless, the site mostly records the dead and the fantastical: the phenakistoscope, the teleharmonium, Piesse’s Smell Organ, Loutherbourg’s Eidophusikon, Hummel’s Telediagraph, runic tally sticks, Scopitone, pigeon post, pneumatic mail, the whistling networks of the Canary Islands, and numerous moving image and sound devices that are no more. The Dead Media Project has itself been dead since July 2008, but it is worth looking at the pages via the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine to retrieve the information held at that date.
