Licences for Christian Bookstores

Showing films and/or playing music in your bookshop can help to promote a certain resource, however, you may not be aware that pre-recorded videos and DVDs are only intended for personal home use and do not include permission for you to show them in your bookshop.  

Every time you show a film, or play a CD, you must first ensure that you have obtained permission from the copyright owner. This can be a costly and time consuming process.  Instead, CCLI can provide you with a simple, legal and affordable solution to your copyright needs.

	Playing Music If your bookshop is open to the public or there is a significant footfall of customers then you may need  a Performing Right Society (PRS) Church Licence.
	Showing Films If you show films in your bookshop then you may need a Church Video Licence (CVL) and a Performing Right Society (PRS) Church Licence.
	Downloading Song Lyrics and Music If you want instant access to CCLI's online song database, with great features such as transposing songs into the key of your choice, Music Player and 30-second sound samples, then you may need SongSelect.
