My name is Angela Loverde and I am a second grade teacher in Katy, Texas.
I would like to know if I could please have permission to read the book Michael Recycle to my students during on-line distance learning? We are using it for our Earth Day unit.

I would like to read the novel Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH as a voice recording to my students through an online platform called Brightspace. (Ontario Canada). I was wondering if I could get permission to do this. Aladdin Books Macmillan publishing company.

Thank you to all the publishers for allowing this.

Have any of the publishers who only allow live readings for libraries considered allowing their books that are out of print to be read and retained until June? It's not like they're making any profits on those books, and maybe renewed interest through online storytimes could renew interest in publication!

I would like to continue reading The Wild Robot by Peter Brown with my grade 2-3 class. Can you please let me know if this is possible and how would I do that?

To whom it may concern,

I would like to read “My Magic Breath” on our non-profit Facebook live video and I am wondering if I have permission to do so during these times? We work with families with children 0-12 years and are trying to find ways to reach our families still. This book is through Harper Collins publishing. Thank you for your time!

Are Golden Books allowed to be shown/read for story time?

Hello. I am the Children's Librarian in Paris, TX.
I will be creating my own videos with puppets, singing, and stories for online viewing during this spring and summer. I need to know which books and publishers I am allowed to use on my videos and the rules. How do I go about that? I do not see a list provided here.
Thank you,

Is there a similar resource for music that can be used in online programming?

Will you be updating this list for fall?

Will you be updating your Covid-19 Publisher Directory? Many of the dates expire June 30th or July 30th. Many schools are starting off with remote learning.

Thank you!

I'm the Children's Librarian here in North Central Kansas and wondering what books I'm aloud to do Virtual Video Reading an the publishers for our Fall program from Sept 1 to Dec 31?

Hi,

I am trying to embed readings of The VeryHungry Caterpillar, Eric Carle ( Philomen Publishing, On Meadowview Street, Henry Cole. (Greenwillow Press) Because of An Acorn written by Lola M.Shaefer (Chronicle Books) into a video lesson for our visitors. Can I put it up on our non profit website and/or our youtube account?

First of all thank you so much for providing the information about publishers permissions and keeping it up to date. I am confused about seeing so many picture books read aloud by librarians on line when the publisher guidelines specifically say that they are only to be presented on private platforms to a limited audience. How does this apply to public libraries. I have read all the publisher permission guidelines and do not understand how NYPL for instance has permission to air story time on line for anyone to see. Can someone help me understand?
