Every day people make copies of printed material for a number of reasons: education, research, information and business. Often they do so without approval of the copyright owner.

Before we distribute funds to copyright owners, we first need to know what has been copied.

We’re focussed on helping owners of creative content earn a living from their work. At different times of the year, we distribute funds collected from licensing fees to copyright owners.

Good New Zealand books and their authors are close to our heart and we’re out to declare our unreserved love.

Copyright Licensing NZ is the sole, recognised Reproduction Rights Organisation (RRO) in New Zealand for text based copyright material and a member of the global body, the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organisations (IFRRO).

We have created these useful guides to explain the ins and outs of a CLNZ Education Licence.
