Some of the eFlicks titles say Public performance permitted. What does this mean?
As defined by the Copyright Act (Title 17, U.S.C., Copyrights, Section 101, Definitions), a performance is considered ‘public’ when the work is performed in a ‘place open to the public or at a place where a substantial number of persons outside of a normal circle of family and its social acquaintances are gathered.’ If a title at this site is marked with the designation ‘public performance permitted,’ this means that the title may be used in a public setting, such as a classroom or a library story hour.
