This article investigates whether museums are shifting from having users respect the copyright to their collections towards becoming intellectual property managers. Based on interviews and surveys, I answer additional research questions: What is the awareness of the importance of copyright to museum collections? Do museums create copyright management policies? What difficulties do they face when acquiring copyright to collections? I study this issue using the example of Polish public museums. The research shows that despite the importance of copyright, museums in Poland do not undertake any actions to manage this area. The difficulties in implementing strategic solutions include shortages in human resources (and the related lack of time and competence) and indecisive management
