The library bought PDA credits from Kanopy; we also license from Docuseek2 and have a couple of inexpensive subscriptions. So far the cost has been manageable.

Do any of your faculty require students to get a Netflix subscription or rent from Amazon?  One of our faculty brought TubitTv to my attention - ad-supported, free, has licensed some good docs like Loving Story https://tubitv.com/movies/312544/the_loving_story

At SPSCC, eLearning and the library split the cost of Kanopy. Part of FoD is supported by our prof-tech programs.

At BBCC the library & eLearning are the same dept. and yes, eLearning fees are used to assist with some of the costs related to online instruction.

Hello, we're feeling the very high costs of streaming video databases and the increasing demand for these resources among faculty. As I'm sure you've experienced, a campus really needs a variety of streaming databases to fill faculty needs - drawing from FoD, Swank, and others.



My question to you...does your Library partner in the subscription costs of these databases with eLearning? I'm just trying to figure out a way to share these costs because they are beyond what the library budget alone can take. Any alternative funding models and ideas for providing multiple streaming databases to your campus would be appreciated!



Thank you,

Candice
