SUBJECT: WE WANT KANOPY BACK, NYPL!

If you are a NYPL cardholder and have been enjoying KANOPY streaming service for the last few years to watch wonderful classic and modern films, you may have seen this message sent by the NYPL today. 

"As of July 1, 2019, The New York Public Library will no longer offer cardholders free access to video streaming platform Kanopy. The Library made this decision after a careful and thorough examination of its streaming offerings and priorities. We believe the cost of Kanopy makes it unsustainable for the Library, and that our resources are better utilized purchasing more in-demand collections such as books and e-books. We apologize for any inconvenience. If you have any further questions, please reach out to gethelp@nypl.org.

Caryl Matute, Interim Chief Branch Library Officer, The New York Public Library"

Lets urge the NYPL to give NYC NYPL members back access to this wonderful streaming service. SO PLEASE WRITE THEM : gethelp@nypl.org
