Frequently Asked Questions
Can I show a film for a campus or club event?
You will likely need Public Performance Rights (PPR) to show a film at a club or campus event. Some films in the Kanopy database have PPR, or you may find a film in the public domain.
You can purchase Public Performance Rights from the company Swank. The library does not have funds to purchase PPR.
Scholarly Communications Librarian Sonya Durney can help with any questions you have about Performance Rights, showing films, or copyright.
