After 34 years of collaboration between Panorama and Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec (BAnQ) in support of the legal deposit of sound recordings, MetaMusic is now taking over this responsibility.
MetaMusic now enables rights holders and publishers to submit the legal deposit of their physical and digital releases directly through its website.
The Library and Archives of Canada Act is a federal legislation that gives Library and Archives Canada (LAC) the legal authority to collect and preserve the country's published heritage. Canadian publishers and producers are required to submit final versions of music and video recordings.
