Our education copyright solutions
CLA is recognised by the government as the collective licensing body for the reuse of text and images from books, journals, and magazines. Our copyright licence is required if any of your staff makes copies from any of the print or online publications that CLA represents. Read information on complying with copyright.
We operate blanket copying licences that enable education institution employees to access, reuse and share content from more than 16 million publications, from professional and trade magazines, through scientific and medical journals to technical reports, textbooks and revision guides, and websites โ you name it, we can make it available to you.
We have and continue to develop digital tools to enable our licence holders to get more value from their CLA Licence, act responsibly, protect their organisation, support creatives and Copy, Right.
How to check if the book, magazine or website you want to copy is covered
Checking if you can copy your favourite resource is easy! Type the title, author, ISBN/ISSN number, or URL of the publication into our Check Permissions search tool to get an instant result.
