Access Copyright

We simplify the complexities of complying with copyright law.

Welcome to
Access Copyright

In the digital age, understanding copyright law is crucial for every business. You can find just about anything you want with the click of a mouse, but sharing or re-using published content can get you into hot water if you’re not careful. At Access Copyright, we are a not-for-profit organization that helps Canadian businesses comply with copyright law through our licensing solutions.

Before emailing copies of published journal articles to colleagues or allowing your sales or marketing team to distribute reference materials to potential clients, you need to ensure you have permission to do so. If you don’t, it could expose your company to significant financial liabilities.

Our licensing options allow you to meet your content needs legally. We work with a variety of creators and publishers throughout Canada and the world to provide annual and pay-per-use copyright licensing options to grant your organization the ability to reuse content from over 100 million published works.

Select. Create. Share. Reward.
