As we state in our history, CCLI began as a ministry of the Church and a service to the Church, in order to better educate and equip churches about copyright laws, to protect the church from the consequences of copyright infringement and to encourage greater utilisation of copyright works in church activities. This takes many forms: Copyright Licences, discovery tools such as SongSelect® and ScreenVue®, and a vast offering of Christian content, media and resources. CCLI doesn’t write the laws nor do we enforce them. We are a resource. We are your resource.

At the same time, our charter honours and celebrates the creative works of the world’s greatest songwriters, publishers, labels and producers. We wholeheartedly believe that they are entitled to fair and equitable compensation for their gifts of music and film. CCLI occupies a unique position in both enabling the legal use of creative content while at once establishing new channels for connecting our customers with our partners.

For our school customers, CCLI facilitates legal access to a huge range of the songs popular in assemblies and times of collective worship. As a part of the UK Government’s national licence provision, CCLI is helping to simplify copyright in schools and encourage greater understanding of intellectual property by pupils.
