Our Education Solutions

CLA is recognised by the government as the collective licensing body for the reuse of text and images from books, journals and magazines.

Our copyright licence is required if any of your staff make copies from any of the print or online publications that CLA represents. Read information on complying with copyright.

We operate blanket copying licences that enable public sector employees to access, reuse and share content from more than 16 million publications, from professional and trade magazines, through scientific and medical journals to technical reports, consumer data and business books and websites – you name it, we can make it available to you.

We also operate a streamlined document delivery and article ordering service specially designed to serve information to NHS staff on-demand. This service is available to all NHS bodies.
