Do you need a licence?

Every day, businesses use newspaper and magazine content for a wide variety of reasons – sharing relevant information with colleagues or clients, monitoring competitor activity, analysing market activity or simply keeping up to date with media news.

All this activity, however, requires permission – and that permission comes in the form of an NLI licence. If you aren’t sure whether or not your organisation needs a licence from NLI, consider the following questions:

Do you (or your colleagues) circulate newspaper and magazine articles internally?
Does your business have an intranet that hosts newspaper or magazine content?
Do you scan the media and keep/distribute articles or interest?
Have you engaged the services of a Media Monitoring Organisation (MMO) to scan the media for articles of interest?
Do you have a Public Relations agency that supplies you with press clippings or other media content?
Do you ever scan articles and post them to your website?
Do you scan, copy or index news media content and send it to clients?

IF THE ANSWER TO ANY OF THESE QUESTIONS IS ‘YES’ THEN IT IS LIKELY YOU NEED A LICENCE FROM NLI.

NLI provides a simple, straightforward and cost-effective licensing model that caters for all business and organisation types and that allows you to access and use newspaper/magazine content in compliance with copyright law.
