4. Videos  Neither the rental nor the purchase of a copy of a copyrighted work carries with it the right to publicly exhibit the work.  No additional license is required to privately view a movie or other copyrighted work with a few friends and family or in certain narrowly defined face-to-face teaching activities. ("Motion picture association," 2013)

5. Videos Continued  However a public performance license must be obtained to show in: *bars *restaurants *private clubs *daycare facilities *prisons *recreation departments *lodges*churches *factories *public libraries *summer camps *parks *non-classroom use at schools and universities. ("Motion picture association," 2013)

6. Let’s check out a few copyright scenarios!

7. Scenario #1  Mrs. Logan went to the public library to borrow a movie. She wants to show this in her classroom as a reward for her students. Is this ok?

8. NO!  The school itself has to have a license. “A public library cannot pass on copyright compliance to anyone, nor can anyone else except Movie Licensing USA or the studios themselves do so. If you borrow movies from a public library for student entertainment, such as After School programs in an unlicensed school, you are not only violating copyright law but you are also involving the public library in non- compliance.” ("Movie licensing usa," 2013)

9. Scenario #2  It’s a rainy Friday night. Not many people are out and about so business for your restaurant tonight is not going well. You decide to rent a movie and show it for the few customers you do have. Surely they will enjoy their drinks and appetizers along with a movie!

10. NO!  Sorry! You have interfered with the copyright in the video work. Movies are not licensed for exhibition to the public. They are for private use. ("Motion picture association," 2013

11. Scenario #3  Many of the movies shown at Mrs. Taylors’ school are VHS. Like many other classrooms at her school, the VCR’s are slowly being obsolete. Computers and smartboards are the new and improved way to show movies. Can Mrs. Taylor make DVD copies of these videos?

12. YES…. but be careful!  If you are certain that a replacement copy cannot be purchased then yes, you may “rescue” the tape.  However, if there is a version of the movie available on DVD, then it must be purchased to replace the VHS. (Copyright for Teachers and Librarians)
