New Service - Films available on demand

WHAT IS KANOPY

Kanopy is an on-demand streaming video service for educational institutions that provides 12 million students and faculty with access to more than 26,000 films each year. Kanopy's unique PDA (patron driven acquisition) model ensures institutions only pay for the films their students and faculty actually watch. Kanopy works directly with filmmakers and film distribution companies to offer award-winning collections including titles from PBS, BBC, Criterion Collection, Media Education Foundation and more. Kanopy is headquartered in San Francisco, California and has offices in Sydney, Australia.

UIUC AND KANOPY

• Obtained a license in Fall 2014 for Symptom Media• Media purchasing moved to Acquisitions in January

2015• Acquisitions gained staff member Ginger Schutz and

together we looked at purchasing problems:

Issues around streaming media purchases: • Availability (often not in that format)

• costs (3-4 times more than DVDs minimum)

• signatures: signed license =delays

• time sensitive demand (often needed for a class)
