Jamaican Copyright Licensing Agency Limited

Description:

The Jamaican Copyright Licensing Agency is Jamaica’s national Reproduction Rights organisation (RRO) and Collective Management Organisation (CMO) for copyright in text and image-based published works. It was constituted in 1998 as a non-profit entity under Jamaican law and in accordance with the Jamaica Copyright Act of 1993.

JAMCOPY provides licensing and education solutions that make it easy for businesses, government and educational institutions to manage copyright compliance efficiently. These solutions incorporate facilitating access, and allowing users in these organisations to re-use and share content within the organisation and across national borders. Education and awareness building programmes that enable organisations and individuals to maximize returns from their creativity and innovation are also included.

As a collective management organisation, JAMCOPY receives authorisation from creators and publishers of material published in printed and digital format, to collectively manage their exclusive rights to publish and reproduce their works in any form.
