One of the most important aspects of Clicklaw Wikibooks is that they use Creative Commons copyright licences, which are designed to encourage sharing and reuse of information.
Creative Commons copyright licences give creators a simple, standardized way to grant copyright permissions to their creative work. Every Creative Commons licence helps creators retain copyright while allowing others to copy, distribute, and make some uses of their work — at least non-commercially.
Clicklaw Wikibooks indicate at the bottom of their pages the Creative Commons licence for that specific work.
The Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 Canada Licence (CC BY-NC-SA 2.5 CA) lets others reuse, remix, and build upon the work non-commercially, as long as they credit the copyright holder and license their new creations under the identical terms. View the licence details.
