The Australian and New Zealand Copyright Acts allow educational institutions to copy programs from television or radio, provided the institution has agreed to pay a fee for this use. Many institutions use resource centres to access Screenrights copies. Resource centres have been set up with the sole function of copying for educators at licensed institutions who request a particular program. Copies are provided at cost only and the resource centre must also have a Screenrights licence. There are several resource centres in Australia, including one operated by Screenrights through EnhanceTV. Resource centres have been running since 1990.
