Overview
Library Services commenced a pilot with Kanopy in summer
2016, to explore new and innovation forms of video provision
for College communities, and in support of other video-on-
demand and off-air recording services (e.g. Box of Broadcasts).
Liaison Librarians were consulted in order to profile the PDA
titles, a number of subject areas were discounted and the
profile enabled us to load the MARC21 records into our Primo
Discovery layer.
The following slides give an overview of the usage to date.
