[CASL-L] When Do We Need a SWANK LICENSE?

[Kenneth Dunaj]

Hi Christina,

Our high school LLC budget included SWANK movie streaming this past year
for the first time.  We found it to be very helpful to support
learning both in and outside of school.  As always, you should poll your
school staff to see if they are using it.  I know SWANK does not currently
have usage numbers for subscribers.

Secondly, our district also has a licence for teachers to show movies on
DVD so that they are not violating copyright.  This is an annual licence.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Ken
