Five ways to engage with copyright at UCL
This post brings together five key resources and activities you can engage with to learn more about copyright and share your copyright questions and knowledge with others.
New copyright game to mark International Museums Day 2025
The great thing about copyright games is that you can learn new concepts, consolidate your existing knowledge and, importantly, understand the grey areas in IP debates without noticing that some serious learning is happening: you are too busy trying to solve the codes in online escape rooms, outwit other players in face-to-face board games or get full marks in quirky quizzes.
Learning about copyright: a perspective from a work placement student

Artas, currently in his first year at college, had his work experience week with the UCL copyright support team in March 2025. Here is his perspective on copyright from a student’s point of view.
Are you a human? Then UCL’s new copyright card game is for you!
If someone ‘infringed your copyright’ i.e. reproduced your work without your permission, would you be…angry? Flattered? Unconcerned? And when you use, say, an image created by someone else, do you think…you always need permission? Or that it’s fine without permission as long as you give credit to the author? Or that it’s OK as long as the use is ‘educational’?
Happy 2025! What’s new in copyright?
Happy New Year and welcome to the new term at UCL!

If you are a student or a member of staff at UCL, you can shape how UCL approaches copyright literacy.
