Linfield has access to streaming video through a number of providers. Many streaming services are individual subscriptions, most are not covered under Fair or Education Use. We recommend that faculty use library licensed content whenever possible. To request an individual titles, contact Collection Development and Engagement Librarian Chase Andrews.
Fair Use is a defense for the use of copyrighted materials not a right.
Educational use is not allow by the majority of streaming services. These services offer individual rather than institutional subscriptions. It is important to read the terms of use and avoid violating them.
If a course requires access to a streaming services that is not available through Linfield’s current licenses, the streaming service subscription must be included under required course materials.
