Its Ten Targets for a Digital Future aim to ensure that every creator and every creation can be automatically identified on the net if they wish to be; that every creation can have machine-readable rights information linked to it (whether for commercial or free use); and that existing standards of different media types can be interoperable.
Even in the early project days of the original LCC, it became clear that this was something special; a two-year project that brought together the interests, best-practice and talents of creators, cross-media organisations and standards organisations from around the globe. Everyone involved realised that this unique collaboration should continue which is why we are launching the LCC Forum.

Who should join? Anyone with an interest in the LCC Vision and potential benefits of interoperable standards to identify and trade in rights, is welcome to join. Ever since the LCC™s launch our supporters have come from all over the world and have been diverse in their interests whether they be creators, from media and creative industry companies, distributors, software developers, one of the many users of rights and content, members of collecting societies, NGOs or politicians, regulators and many more.
We aim to publish a newsletter twice a year to keep you updated on the various implementations of the LCC (e.g. the EU co-funded RDI project or the UK Copyright Hub) and other new developments to come.
