Abstract: This study aims to determine the level of awareness of the Bicol State College of Applied Sciences and Technology (BISCAST) teaching personnel in terms of copyright ranging from basic and advanced knowledge, open educational resources (OERs) to creative commons (CCs). The survey, case study, and action research are the research methods used in the study. The survey questionnaire was divided into three sections: fundamentals of copyright, limitations of copyright and fair use, and creative commons. With the indicators from the questionnaire, 5 out of 7 from the first section, 7 out of 7 from the second section, and 7 out of 8 from the last section have an interpretation of 'aware'. Therefore, the copyright awareness of the BISCAST teaching personnel is considered above average. Moreover, the initiatives that can be conducted are capacity or capability building focusing on advanced concepts on copyright, especially creative commons in the context of the new normal.
