For Faculty

Faculty Video Streaming Service

Faculty: Need your class to watch a film? We've got you covered.

澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网's Kanopy subscription allows anyone with a current 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 username and password to access Kanopy. However, only faculty may request the purchase of streaming rights for instructional purposes.

About 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网's Kanopy Subscription

Due to high costs, new licenses on Kanopy are only purchased when requested by a faculty member for class use. Here's what you need to know:

  • Access: Anyone with a 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 username and password can view films we already have licenses to stream on Kanopy.
  • Faculty Requests: Only 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 faculty can request the purchase of films we don't already have licenses for. Requests must be made directly through Kanopy.
  • Fulfillment Time: We fulfill requests as soon as possible, but Kanopy may take some time to process purchases.
  • License Duration: Licenses are typically for one year. If you keep a film on your syllabi, double-check that we still have access to it with a couple of weeks' lead time.
