Kanopy Video Streaming

Kanopy Video is a streaming service made available to Hilbert College by McGrath Library.  

 Kanopy uses a Patron-Driven Access Model for Invoices/Billing

  • Videos are free until they are accessed 4 times (for more than 30 seconds).
  • Once they are accessed 4 times within a calendar year a purchase is triggered.
  • After a purchase is triggered, we have unlimited access to the video for only 365 days.
  • Access to purchases is limited automatically. 

If you would like McGrath Library to investigate acquiring any of the videos on Kanopy in a permanent form (DVD), please fill out a purchase request form.   Take advantage of any strategy that will minimize costs. If you have any questions, please email askus@hilbert.edu or mlaidman@hilbert.edu.
