Purpose: The basic definition of visual literacy is the ability to read, write, and create Visual elements. It is the skill of evaluating and understanding visual records, which is crucial for information professionals and researchers in managing and interpreting images effectively. Visual Literacy refers to a group of vision competencies a human being can develop by seeing and simultaneously having and integrating other sensory experiences. Visual literacy refers to the ability to effectively interpret, analyse, and use images. Visual literacy is a continuous conversation about images, photos, pictures, symbols, and visuals in general. Also, a field for study and practice that examines how to observe and interpret images, and how to use symbols and photos to convey meaning. With the wide use of images in various media and information sources, and the development of visual technologies, currently, media users are faced with visual information to a great extent. It should be noted that visual literacy is an interdisciplinary concept and plays an important role in higher education. Students' use of visual literacy skills in universities plays an important role in their practical activities. This research examines the role of visual literacy in observing intellectual property rights in the use of information resources.
Method: This study employed an analytical survey method. The study population is 41 university subject specialists who have good knowledge and information in the field of visual literacy. The tool for collecting information was a researcher-made questionnaire, whose validity was reviewed and modified in the form of face validity. The reliability of the questionnaire was analyzed by Cronbach's alpha statistical method and its value was 0.831. The questions of the questionnaire were about issues related to copyright and intellectual property rights, which dealt with different aspects of this field. The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was used to measure the normality of the data. This test showed that the data has a normal distribution.
Findings: The findings of the research showed that the evaluation of the following indicators- "the degree of adherence to ethical principles in the use of visual resources by students", "the degree of adherence of students to intellectual property rights issues in the use of visual resources", and "the extent of citation of visual resources"- was below average. The students who are familiar with visual literacy had limited knowledge about intellectual property rights issues. Therefore, it is necessary to hold appropriate training for them in this field.
Conclusion:The results indicate that it is appropriate to carry out educational and rehabilitation works in these fields: privacy; Compliance with ethical principles about the production, use and sharing of images; Familiarity with components such as the role of censorship and understanding its dimensions, familiarity with appropriate ethical methods when accessing, using, and creating visuals; Knowing the limitations associated with image usage licenses; Citation to the creator of the image; Following the best legal and ethical practices and teaching visual literacy standards. It is also appropriate for universities to pay attention to the various dimensions of intellectual property rights for the use of images and visuals and to give more importance to these aspects in the publication of scientific works.
