Open Access licence

Capture the URL of the Creative Commons licence in a metaDescribes about="open-access-licence" element.

OUP will indicate if a book, article, etc., is published with Open Access, and provide the URL of the applicable licence in the Creative Commons: field in the Handover Form.

If the licence applies to an entire book, capture the URL at both book and chapter/article/appendix level, i.e. inside every metaItem element in the book where the about attribute contains the name of an element.

If the licence applies just to a single chapter or article, capture the URL just in the metadata for that chapter or article.
