We introduce entanglement measures to describe entanglement in a three-particle system and apply it to studying broadcasting of entanglement in the three-particle Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) state. The results show that the entanglement of the three-qubit GHZ state can be partially broadcasted with the help of local or non-local copying processes. It is found that non-local cloning is much more efficient than local cloning for the broadcasting of entanglement.
