Once something is published to Commons, does it become public?

Once you publish something to commons, does this mean that it is open to the public?

Good evening,  @christyawill  Welcome to the Canvas Community.  Thanks for posting your question about Canvas Commons.  The answer to your question is "not necessarily".  Check out the following two Guides...as I think they will help to answer your question:

• How do I share a resource to Commons? (refer to the section on "Choose Sharing Option" about half-way down the Guide)
• What types of sharing options are available in Commons?

I hope these resources will be of help to you, Christy.  Please let Community members know if you have any other questions about this...thanks!
