• Resumen

  • This paper paints a picture of the views on copyright literacy in Hungary. The Hungarian Library and Information Science (LIS) community has been introduced to varied literacies, mainly in their native language. The best-known literacy is information literacy, but step-by-step other literacies appear in Hungarian journal and conference papers. Due to the adherence of Hungarian librarians to their native language, there are still abstracting services that deliver abstracts on different LIS subjects that are available in the Hungarian language. Translations of the term copyright literacy to Hungarian bears resemblance to information literacy, that is, they are either verbatim translations of the concepts or emphasize literacy’s meaning as being educated and having erudition. On this background, the results obtained on a convenience sample of the Hungarian part of an international copyright literacy survey are presented and compared to the findings of two other surveys that used the same questionnaire.
