Copyright Licensing New Zealand (CLNZ)

CLNZ represents book publishers and authors from New Zealand and overseas in providing licences for copying from printed copyright works. A CLNZ licence enables education facilities and businesses to gain advanced permission to copy and scan from print material to share with staff or students. Jointly owned by the Publishers Association of New Zealand (PANZ) and the New Zealand Society of Authors (NZSA), CLNZ is a not for profit organisation. Revenue generated from licensing is redistributed back to the owners of the work being copied.
