Copyright Licensing New Zealand (CLNZ) provides licences to help make copying, scanning and sharing printed works easy and legal. We play a key role in making creative rights valuable assets for all New Zealanders, be they rightsholders (like creators or publishers), or users such as educators and students. We enable New Zealand’s creative people to record and manage their copyright, as well as package the copyright in such a way that users can access the work through a simple licence. We see ourselves as an empowering organisation, making sure everyone enjoys their rights and gets full value from them. We issue the licences, and collect the revenues to distribute back to the rightsholders. We are a not-for-profit organisation, jointly owned by the Publishers Association of New Zealand (PANZ) and the New Zealand Society of Authors (NZSA). To support understanding of copyright we provide online learning and information resources, and we advocate for legislation that will support the endeavours of New Zealand's talented creative people. Our Approach: Experts - Our expertise helps everyone get it right when it comes to rights. Simplify - Our technology and approach makes the rights process easier. Empower - We empower both creators and users of rights to get full value from them.
