International Network

Access Copyright is a member of the International Federation of Reproduction Rights Organizations (IFRRO).

With the co-operation of national reproduction rights organizations (RROs) around the world, IFRRO facilitates the collective management of the reproduction of copyright protected works. 

Our reciprocal agreements with other copyright collectives across the globe have created a network of international licences, which means our affiliates (writers, visual artists and publishers) receive royalties when their works are copied, whether it be in Canada or around the world. Any royalties attributed to Canadian creators and publishers for works copied in other countries (with whom we have agreements) are forwarded to Canadian writers, visual artists and publishers via Access Copyright.
