Client success story

“Faculty are very happy that we got the Annual Copyright License for Higher Education from CCC because it opens up the ability for them to use far more content than they had previously been able to use. There were times in the past when I had to tell an instructor that they couldn’t use an article because the copyright permission was expensive.  Getting the license has enabled us to improve the quality of the materials that we offer to students because there’s no longer a barrier.”
