Who Are the NLA

Our full name is NLA media access Ltd. The company was originally set up as the ‘Newspaper Licensing Agency’ (NLA) in 1996 by eight British national newspapers, who are equal shareholders. Since then the NLA has been selling copying licences for newspaper content, as well as providing data feeds of publisher content to Media Monitoring organisations.

In 2013, the NLA started licensing magazine content as well as newspaper content. The Professional Publishers Association (PPA) recommended the NLA to its members, and over 150 magazine publishers – over 40% of the market by value – have already signed up with the NLA
