Re: Zotero and WikiEducator

Hi Dr. Wayne Mackintosh:
I am personally an advocate for making our resources available under free 
contents license. However not all resources available with our Centre can be 
free. We are at the moment studying different types of licensing available 
to arrive at a policy decision.
With the best regards,
Yours truly,
M.D.Muthukumaraswamy
