Canada, for our members as well as the wider community we
serve.
In 2024, we presented on our licensing and distribution services, artificial intelligence (AI) and copyright, and collective efforts to advocate for copyright reform in Canada over the past decade. Groups we presented to included the Allied Arts Council of Lethbridge, the Association of Manitoba Book Publishers, the Book Publishers Association of Alberta, Crime Writers of Canada, the Federation of BC Writers, the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organizations, and SaskBooks.
Access Copyright is also part of an international network of reproduction rights organizations. In the last year, we were grateful to learn from and exchange information with partner organizations from around the world, including Australia, Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the United States, and others. The insights we continue to gain from these conversations about licensing for AI purposes and corporate licensing are being applied to our work in growing our licensee base, as well as examining how we might strengthen our licence offerings through expanding our repertoire or other services.
