The Internet and rapidly improving telecommunications access and facilities throughout the world have brought a new dimension to the idea of universal, free education.

Or the author or subject of a book felt strongly that it should be published under a particular open copyright. Maybe the book was written collectively by a particular community, as in the case of our Community Press books. Wikibooks. Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education.
