Australian Libraries Copyright Committee is an Australian organization dealing with copyright law in Australia.

It has a particular focus with relevance for the GLAM sector in Australia.[1][2]

It is related to the Australian Digital Alliance.[3][4]

The ALCC was formed in 1994 to attend to copyright issues affecting the library, archive and information sectors. [5]

It became an incorporated body in 2015.

It is focused upon law reform in the Australian legal system. [6]

It regularly provides updated information and interpretation about legislation. [7][8]

Legislation relative to copyright issues with Australia being signatory to international treaties, has seen the committee attend to low level publicised legislation such as the Disability and Other Measures Act. [9]
