The Copyright Evidence Portal gives access to the world’s current knowledge about copyright law and its effects – as a data-minable Wiki catalogue and through visualizations. It includes the Copyright Evidence Wiki, a digital resource intended to construct a complete catalogue of existing empirical evidence relevant to copyright policy in order to inform public debate.

A digital archive of primary sources on copyright from the invention of the printing press (c. 1450) to the Berne Convention (1886) and beyond. For each of the thirteen geographical areas covered, a national editor has selected, transcribed, translated and commented on documents. Primary Sources on Copyright is co-produced with CIPIL / University of Cambridge.

CopyrightUser.eu provides authoritative and accessible guidance on EU copyright law. The website – developed through the Horizon 2020 project reCreating Europe: Rethinking digital copyright for a culturally diverse, accessible, creative Europe – helps ‘copyright users’ across the EU make informed decisions on copyright issues.

CopyrightUser.org is an independent online resource intended to make UK copyright law accessible to creators, media professionals, entrepreneurs, students, and members of the public. The platform offers innovative multimedia resources and accessible guidance that are based on authoritative research and responsive to users’ needs.
