OERca2 Clearer Module

[edit] overview

Many users will employ OERca as a tool for clearing copyright issues around objects. This particular module will assist users with decisions on what to do with objects. For example, Open.Michigan typically chooses one of three options for an object: Retain (keep it because U-M has permission through a license of some sort, it's in the public domain, or they have analyzed it for copyright issues and decided they can legally use it), Replace (search for an open replacement, create a replacement, or commission the creation of a replacement), or Remove (do not publish and share the object in question). The clearing workflow/decision choices can be customized by the admin of OERca. Different organizations or users of the system will want a variety of processing choices in this module. This module will also take advantage of a number of tools in OERca. Specifically, users might use the search tool to find replacement objects, users might use the crowdsourcing tool to get help finding replacement objects, and users might use the communication tool to ask supervisors or even lawyers about the copyright status of objects. Similarly, users might find the task manager tool helpful: as an object moves from one module in the workflow to the next, the user is notified by the task manager what needs to be done to continue processing that object.
