How can instructors obtain a license to use home use videorecordings for public performance?
• One way is to contact the copyright holder directly, or the distributor if the distributor has the authority from the copyright owner to grant licenses, to purchase public performance rights or to request permission for a particular public performance use. • Another way, particularly in the case of feature films, is to contact the licensing service representing the particular studio or title. Services vary in the types of licensing offered and the scope of materials represented.
