2156 "At one level, being Made with Creative Commons expresses an affinity for the "
2157 "value of Creative Commons. While there are many different flavors of CC "
2158 "licenses and nearly infinite ways to be Made with Creative Commons, the "

6327 "being informed, but she’s come to see that she was wrong. Almost everyone "
6328 "wants to be informed about issues that matter—not only to them, but also to "
6329 "their families, their communities, their businesses, and their country. But "
6330 "there’s a big difference between availability and accessibility of "
6331 "information. Data is spread across thousands of sites and is held within "
6332 "databases and spreadsheets that require both time and skill to engage "
6333 "with. To use data when making a decision, you have to know what specific "
6334 "question to ask, identify a source that has collected the data, and "
6335 "manipulate complex tools to extract and visualize the information within the "
6336 "data set. Lillian established Figure.NZ to make data truly accessible to "

6711 "In 2008, Bloomsbury Academic, a new imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing in the "
6712 "United Kingdom, appointed her its founding publisher in London. As part of "
6713 "the launch, Frances convinced Bloomsbury to differentiate themselves by "
6714 "putting out monographs for free online under a Creative Commons license "
6715 "(BY-NC or BY-NC-ND, i.e., Attribution-NonCommercial or "
6716 "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs). This was seen as risky, as the biggest "
