“…Existing studies of individuals' awareness of and attitude towards copyright issues in education have examined administrators (Chase, 1994;Gatlin & Arn, 1999;Kordsmeier, Gatlin-Watts, & Arn, 2000), librarians (Charbonneau & Priehs, 2014;Eye, 2013;Granbery, 2013), and archivists (Dryden, 2010). Several studies have looked at copyright knowledge levels in American K-12 and university educators.…”

“…Increasingly librarians are asked about copyright ownership issues and educating faculty and student about copyright (Vesely, 2007;Zerkee, 2016). In the absence of units on campus dedicated to educating students and faculty about copyright and digital content, the university library has become a natural home for copyright-literacy programs aimed at educating the campus community about copyright law (Charbonneau & Priehs, 2014;Quartey, 2007). Faculty use digital content for research and teaching but few have the basic knowledge of the law to make decisions on legally permissible uses.…”

Despite the importance placed on copyright and intellectual property literacy by the American Library Association, as evidenced in the accreditation standards, issues pertaining to copyright education remain marginal in the library and information science (LIS) curriculum and research. Today, copyright intersects with every library and information service in any type of information institution, yet few librarians get copyright training as part of the formal LIS curriculum in library schools. Lack of copyright education leaves many librarians unable to properly identify and address copyright issues in the workplace. This paper offers a critical analysis of LIS programs over the past 10–12 years with a specific focus on trends in the teaching of copyright matters. Employing a qualitative methodology with a mixed-method approach, the authors analyzed the syllabi of courses dedicated to copyright and intellectual property offered at select LIS programs. The goal was to understand what the copyright courses cover, how they are taught, instructional sources and resources, and curriculum changes over time, where applicable. Findings show that the few LIS programs offering copyright courses have rigorous and dynamic copyright curriculum that constantly changes with the evolving copyright environment. The main takeaway and recommendation is that some kind of coordination is needed in the teaching of copyright and that LIS programs may need minimum standards for the core curriculum of copyright courses. The coordinating mechanism will ensure that periodic review of the core curriculum occurs and takes into account the rapid changes in the different library environments where library students work.

Library and information science literature tells a story of the recent surge in creation the copyright librarian positions in academic libraries from identification of need to construction of job responsibilities and position requirements. This article seeks to continue the story by identifying what information materials and services the librarians responsible for providing copyright assistance have created at their libraries, and how those services are delivered to their institutions. An examination of 115 library websites is employed to identify topics and foci within copyright services with the goal of establishing commonalities of service among U.S. research one libraries that can be used to inform new service development.
