Timeline
James Boyle (born 1959 ) is a Scottish intellectual property scholar.
He is the William Neal Reynolds Professor of Law and co-founder of the Center for the Study of the Public Domain at Duke University School of Law in Durham, North Carolina.
He is most prominently known for advocating looser copyright policies in the United States and worldwide.
Boyle graduated from the University of Glasgow in 1980 and subsequently studied at Harvard Law School.
He joined Duke University School of Law in July 2000.

In 2002, he was one of the founding board members of Creative Commons, and held the position of Chairman of the Board in 2009, after which he stepped down.
He also co-founded Science Commons, which aims to expand the Creative Commons mission into the realm of scientific and technical data, and ccLearn, a division of Creative Commons aimed at facilitating access to open education resources.
In 2006, he earned the Duke Bar Association Distinguished Teaching Award.
