Simbi Adopts Curriculum License From CCC
Simbi, a Canada-based reading platform for children, adopted CCC’s Annual Copyright License for Curriculum & Instruction to streamline its permissions process when using copyrighted material. CCC notes, “The Annual Copyright License for Curriculum & Instruction eases the burden of obtaining one-off permissions, providing a broad repertory of print or digital rights that enable the reuse and distribution of excerpts of high-quality content in curriculum and instructional materials, educational technology (ed tech) applications, and online platforms such as learning management systems.”“Simbi is on a mission to make reading meaningful to students around the globe. We enable readers to read along and read aloud to a growing library which includes the world’s largest repository of culturally diverse narrator accents. This requires us to discover and get permission to reuse content from hundreds of publishers, each of whom has their own set of processes for permissions and payment,” says Aaron Friedland, Simbi’s CEO and co-founder. “CCC’s Annual Copyright License for Curriculum & Instruction lets us reuse content from dozens of publishers through a single solution, saving considerable time and resources.” For more information, read the press release.
