The Umbrella License®  for Public and Private    K-12 Day Schools

 

Showing movies or TV at school? Do parent-teacher organizations, student clubs or other groups using school facilities ever show content from DVDs or Blu-ray on site? Does your school have access to broadcast, cable or satellite TV? Maybe a before or after school program streams movies or TV in your facility? Did you know that situations like these require a public performance license?

 

Educators understand that copyrighted content is intended for personal, private use only. Entertainment exhibitions at your school require a license. Even if your school already has a public performance license, multiple licenses are needed to ensure broad coverage for a variety of rights holders and protect against copyright infringement. The Umbrella License offers a simple, affordable solution to copyright compliance.
