Welcome

Using news or supplying news? We’ve got it covered

The UK's online newspapers offer companies a rich and valuable resource.

If you are a media monitoring organisation, or a client of a media monitoring company receiving news alerts and links to online newspaper articles, then a licence from the NLA will give you and your clients the permission needed to supply, receive and access content electronically.

We are the representative of the most respected newspapers in the UK - that’s 1500 print titles, 1000+ websites and millions of daily articles. So whatever your news requirements, we’ve got it covered.

  

Does your company supply or receive alerts from UK newspaper websites?

UK newspapers invest in the creation of online content, much of which is exclusive to the  web. It's a valuable resource for media monitoring companies and their clients.

The NLA supports the business use of publisher content and has introduced a suite of licences and database services to: 

  1. assist access and

  2.  encourage legitimate use of the content.  

These developments ensure that Publishers continue to earn a fair reward for commercial use of their intellectual property.

If you supply online news to clients you will need a Web Database Licence (WDL) and if you are client of a media monitoring organisation you will need a Web End User Licence (WEUL)
