UCL Copyright Literacy Strategy

Help us shape UCL’s Copyright Literacy Strategy 

We seek your views and feedback on a UCL Copyright Literacy Strategy.  The strategy outlines a vision for the UCL community to increase their skills and confidence applying copyright knowledge in their research, teaching and other professional activities. It supports the LCCOS Strategy 2024 – 2027.

The draft Copyright Literacy Strategy sets out the vision, values and activities with which to achieve this.  A form at the end of the document invites feedback: do the strategy’s aims and proposed implementation speak to your needs?  Are there gaps in understanding or support that could be addressed?

 

Why a Copyright Literacy Strategy for UCL? 

Copyright literacy helps us understand the contexts within which creative works are produced and used, and to apply this understanding in research, teaching and other activities. 

More on copyright skills as a critical part of information literacy can be found on the Arena MicroCPD ‘Embedding copyright literacy into your teaching’ [90 seconds] and on the UCL Education Conference post ‘Getting comfortable with uncertainty’: developing students’ critical copyright literacy in the age of GenAI.

The consultation closes on 13^th December 2024.  A final version of the strategy will be made live in January 2025.  Any interim questions can be emailed to copyright@ucl.ac.uk
