<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Anna:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I would check the licensing permissions on the video and on the website of the content owner (the studio, production company, etc).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the plan is to show the video via the virtual environment (zoom, etc.) and then record it for posting on you tube, etc. for anyone to view, I would caution against that. It is a likely copyright violation unless the license or copyright
owner specifically permits it to be posted publicly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If the session is limited (say, only bookclub members can access it), and the session is not recorded and posted anywhere (including the library website, facebook page, etc.) and no one within the session records and posts it, it is possible
that you may be covered under the same license/fair use that would permit you to show it in the library to a small group, but again, check the license or user agreement on the video.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Before committing to showing the video in an online environment, I would consult your library’s lawyer and review the video’s license.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
