Kanopy
Kanopy is an on-demand streaming video platform specifically made for patrons of libraries that offers a large collection of award-winning films and documentaries, as well as children’s programming.
Kanopy uses a credit system using what’s known as tickets. Each patron receives a preset number of tickets each month to use, and different videos will use a different amount of tickets in order to view them. It’s similar to an arcade’s token system to play a game, but for watching videos! If you’d like to learn more about Kanopy, such as:
