捆绑SM社区

The 捆绑SM社区 Library will be modifying our method for providing access to the platform of streaming films starting January 2019.

捆绑SM社区 Library pays for Kanopy films on a per-title basis. Under our current model, the first four uses of a film are free, but the fifth use 鈥渢riggers鈥� a one-year license for that film. At this time 鈥渢riggered鈥� films represent approximately 1,500 videos. Over the last few years Kanopy has become more popular with the 捆绑SM社区 community. In 2018 usage has reached an unprecedented level and we can no longer add funds to our Kanopy license until the next fiscal year (June 2019). Films already licensed will remain available on the Kanopy platform for the remainder of their one-year license period. Because those end dates will vary, there is the possibility that a previously licensed film will be removed from the catalogue and unavailable on Kanopy at the end of the license term. Faculty members may request that the Library (re)license a Kanopy film. In addition, the Library offers other streaming video options. See below for more information.

Will titles be removed from Kanopy?

Films that have not been licensed may be removed from the library catalogue; this could include a title that was watched in part but not enough times to get licensed.
