Breaking Library News: Open that Kanopy!



I was doing my usual online library check-in...I almost always have books heading my way, and I am constantly checking to see if they have a certain book or movie, etc. And something on the side of the Home Page caught my eye: STREAMING VIDEO ? I knew that would have to happen sooner or later, but I actually thought it would be later.

Well.

It only took a few seconds to set up an account, and then I took a look to see what there was to see. And oh, man, was I impressed. They have So Much Stuff that I want to see. They limit you to 5 per month, but hey, it's free, so no whining.

For instance...there's Loving Vincent. Seven Samurai. I think there's at least one (and sometimes several) movie for every Shake-speare play. There's Ladybird. I Am Not Your Negro. The Pervert's Guide to IdeologyMarwencol - Recovering from a Brutal Attack, an Artist Creates a Miniature World. (The documentary, not the superb but ill-fated movie.) And about a million other great movies. 

Are you still here?
