Q. How can faculty request a new streaming video in Kanopy or Swank (or get the license renewed)?

Fill out this form to request a new video in Kanopy.

Kanopy is a streaming video service offering documentaries and feature films, operating on an annual lease model. After the lease expires, the library loses access to the film unless it renews the lease.

Requesting Kanopy Content  - New Policy as of January 2020

We are using a mediated access model for new Kanopy leases, and the renewal of existing leases. We support faculty in providing access to requested Kanopy titles for Academic Course Use Only.

Upon expiration, faculty must request a renewal. If you currently use Kanopy videos in your courses, and do not know when the leases expire, reach out to laurie-mcfadden@berkeleycollege.edu for assistance. Do not assume a title will be active throughout the semester.
