Copyright Licence
The Challenge
Understanding the many copyright issues related to music is complicated. Moreover, the law is confusing.
For churches, schools or organizations, a seemingly honest error or omission can be embarrassing, time-consuming, and costly. At the same time, the law seeks fairness and protection for all parties.
The Solution
CCLI® makes copyright easy. With the CCLI® Copyright Licence™, churches, organisations and mobile/itinerant workers can be legally covered, saving administrative time, effort and expense.
The CCLI® Church Copyright Licence™ covers the following activities:
Project and Print lyrics
Project songs or reproduce them in custom song and service sheets for congregational singing
Making Custom Arrangements
Arrange, print and copy your own vocal and instrumental arrangements for congregational singing where a published version is not available
Translating Songs
