Q: Is there information on CC BY licensing and commercial vs. non-commercial use?

Answer: A full description of all Creative Commons licenses can be found here: About The CC Licenses. As you will see there are other Creative Commons licenses that don’t allow others to make commercial use of works. However, for TAACCCT DOL has mandated that all works created with grant funds must be licensed CC BY, you cannot choose other Creative Commons licenses. The primary rationale here is that TAACCCT grant funds are public taxpayer money and the public (including businesses) should have access and rights to use what it has paid for.
