Your License to Copy

Copyright Licensing Limited (CLL) offers tailored licensing options that enable education facilities and businesses the freedom to copy, scan, store and share extracts from copyright protected works (such as books, journals and teaching resources). A copyright license greatly minimises the risk of copyright infringement and permits users to access a growing inventory of publications without the hassle of gaining permission from each rights holder individually.

Founded in 1988, CLL is a not for profit organisation that acts of behalf of authors, visual artists and publishers to ensure they receive monetary recognition when their work is copied. It is through this support that we are able to play a part in the preserving the value of their work and protecting creativity.
