    Notes about streaming Netflix documentaries & content from other commercial media companies

    • Netflix allows educational screenings of certain documentaries. Check Educational Screenings of Documentaries (netflix.com) for more information.
    • Netflix "...will permit one-time educational screenings." One-time screening means that you can't hold screenings several times in one day or one week, but you may show the titles once a semester over multiple semesters.
    • The University of Michigan summarizes information about streaming from HBO, Disney+, etc.  
    • Netflix, Disney, HBO, and other mainstream entertainment streaming services do not offer subscriptions to libraries.
    • It is not legal to screen with your personal account in the classroom.
