Technology from Sage’s Talis Customers Can Now Make It Easier for Their Library Teams, Faculty, and Staff to Legally Use Copyrighted Materials in Course Reading Lists
August 26, 2025 – Danvers, Mass. – CCC, a leader in advancing copyright, accelerating knowledge, and powering innovation, announced an integration agreement with Technology from Sage, a division of Sage that provides library technology solutions.
The integration enables academic institutions that subscribe to Technology from Sage’s Talis library resource list management system and CCC’s Annual Copyright License for Higher Education to verify CCC annual license coverage or acquire copyright permissions from CCC via its Pay-Per-Use Permissions services directly within the Talis platform.
Talis fully integrates with any library system to streamline course resourcing, copyright compliance, and acquisitions. It connects faculty and students to library holdings directly within their course resource lists, keeping the library at the heart of teaching and learning. The new integration agreement with CCC enables academic institutions that have adopted CCC’s Annual Copyright License for Higher Education or Pay-Per-Use Permissions services, currently used by over 1,000 colleges and universities, to minimize the number of interfaces, manual steps, and minutes it takes to check or acquire permissions to use copyrighted materials.
“We are excited to bring CCC’s licensing capabilities directly into Talis, making copyright compliance faster and simpler for our library partners,” said Matt Hayes, Managing Director of Technology from Sage. “This integration was requested by libraries using our Talis CourseFlow offering for North American institutions and enables faculty and librarians to now check coverage or secure permissions for resources they use in lists faster and with less friction – keeping the focus on student success.”
“Our customers asked for a faster, easier way to manage copyright in their course materials, and we delivered,” said Emily Sheahan, Vice President and Managing Director, CCC. “By embedding our licensing tools directly into Talis, we’re removing barriers, streamlining workflows, and giving librarians and faculty more time to focus on supporting student learning.”
CCC licensing, content, and technology solutions for academia make it easy for faculty, researchers, staff, students, and other stakeholders to legally access and share copyrighted content. Current academic licensing and content solutions for higher education and K-12 include the Annual Copyright License for Higher Education, Pay-Per-Use Permissions Service, RightFind Curriculum, Get It Now, and the Annual Copyright License for Student Assessments.
