Internet Archive has changed the names of the Open Source Audio, Open Source Books, and Open Source Movies collections. We have chosen to replace the term “Open Source” with “Community,” because we feel it better reflects the purpose of these collections and the people who donated the content.
Open Source typically refers to free access to source code and open distribution. Wikipedia has a detailed definition of the term at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Source_Definition.
Please be assured that none of the URLs for collections or items have changed – if you have links to our site for any content, those links will continue to work.
We hope you agree that this change better reflects their purpose. Please visit our newly renamed collections:
– Community Audio
– Community Texts
– Community Video

Pingback: Community: A New Name for “Open Source” Collections | Daniel's Blog
so using open licenses like cc no longer matters, or is that going to be somehow associated with “community” through a series of promotions?
“open source” is a debatably problematic term because it can be vague in practice, but choosing an even more vague term is not a step forwards for the “community” that wants to share and collaborate on works.
Indeed, “community media” is vague and has a social-political connotation, whatever it may be. “Open source” and “community” are not interchangeable without further specification. Maybe for some time it may inspire patrons to be more “social” when sharing something with “a”/”the” “community”, to work more on their “virtual image”, but I doubt that the content will improve; it will just worsen and be 99% hollow and kindergarten-style like Facebook and Myspace.
I think that an intermediate term between “open source media” (“the bio-seed”) and “community media” (“the bio-land”) would be better. A term that supports slightly the holistic approach without speaking out in words the implicit social.
I like the comment about virtural image. That is something I addressed to nieces and nephews over facebook under Christopher Clairtele.

ATLAST I FOUND OUT GNU OPENSOURSE
HAPPY TO HAVE FOUND YOU OUT
How does one find the file of books on hand and access the book that interests them? There is to much visual distraction that I find it impossible to go to the part of the library that interest me. This is not a sensible way to run a library, because it is not user friendly.
Thank you, Leana
hi leana,
the best way to find what you’re after is to use the search field or the advanced search tool. hope this helps.

Hello,
Please, I need your help.
In this url:
http://www.archive.org/details/Mixes
you have an audio called Trance Emotions Episode 1
How do I know, if I can download it and used for a video and upload it to Youtube, Veoh, etc. without infringing copyright.
The artist/composer is Sylverman, but it says also that this audio is part of the collection Community Audio.
How can I obtain a written permission from the author or Community Audio, so I could use legally.
Thank you so much in advance!
This one reminds me just a touch of the old Spike Jones tunes, ‘rhythmically’ anyway.
