WHAT IS KANOPY?
Kanopy is a film streaming service offering access to a large, curated collection of films that are educational, entertaining, and enriching.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Library members receive 10 free play credits each month. Each film you watch uses one play credit and each play credit grants you 72 hours access to watch the film as many times as you like.

Kanopy uses a pay-per-view model, and Shoalhaven Libraries’s subscription works on a monthly cap. When that cap is reached, access to Kanopy will be unavailable. Don’t worry, though – it will become available again on the first day of the next month.
