The on-demand film streaming service Kanopy is now available for free through the Morton-James Public Library. Library card holders can access Kanopy and sign up to start streaming films instantly by visiting https://nebraskacity.kanopy.com. Films can be streamed from any computer, television, mobile device or platform by downloading the Kanopy app for iOS, Android, AppleTV, Chromecast or Roku.
The viewing period is 72 hours for most films with extended viewing times for The Great Courses and films for children. Patrons are given 10 credits each month (no rollover) and can always see how many credits they have left from their sign in screen. Your Viewing History (when accessing from a web or mobile browser) will show any video that is still available to view.
