Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present findings from a multinational survey on copyright literacy
of specialists from libraries and other cultural institutions.
Design/methodology/approach – This paper is based on a multinational survey of copyright literacy
competencies of Library and Information Science (LIS) professionals and those who work in the cultural
heritage sector (archives and museums), conducted in 13 countries, namely Bulgaria (BG), Croatia (CR), Finland
(FI), France (FR), Hungary (HU), Lithuania (LT), Mexico (MX), Norway (NO), Portugal (PT), Romania (RO),
Turkey (TR), UK and USA in the period July 2013-March 2015. An online survey instrument was developed in
order to collect data from professionals regarding their familiarity with, knowledge and awareness of,
and opinions on copyright-related issues.
Findings – Findings of this study highlight gaps in existing knowledge of copyright, and information about
the level of copyright literacy of LIS and cultural sector professionals. Also attitudes toward copyright learning
content in academic education and continuing professional development training programs are investigated.
Originality/value – This study aimed to address a gap in the literature by encompassing specialists from
the cultural institutions in an international comparative context. The paper offers guidance for further
understanding of copyright in a wider framework of digital and information literacy; and for the
implementation of copyright policy, and the establishment of copyright advisor positions in cultural
institutions. The recommendations support a revision of academic and continuing education programs
learning curriculum and methods.
