Over 50% of teachers use newspaper material on a weekly basis. The FREE NLA paper copying licence allows schools to legitimately make copies of the printed newspapers that teachers buy for use in lessons.
Why is a licence necessary?
Newspapers invest a lot of time and money in creating newspaper content, and copyright law protects them from having this effort stolen. For commercial uses, a paid copyright licence is required, but the special circumstances of schools means that a FREE licence is available.
How do I get the FREE paper copying licence?
It’s simple. Just fill out the simple online form and we will in turn send you an active paper copying licence.
At the same time, why not also register for FREE access to the News Library, the one-stop-shop for finding newspaper articles electronically? It's a great way to reduce time spent scanning articles whilst being compliant with copyright.
