Kanopy

Kanopy is a streaming video collection that includes award-winning films and documentaries from Criterion, Media Education Foundation, and the Performing Arts collection.

Kanopy works a bit differently than our Films on Demand streaming video resource. In Kanopy, a film is purchased when a student or faculty from Massasoit chooses to watch it. The act of viewing the film triggers the license purchase. This helps us to purchase only the films we actually need.

Do I need an account?

When you install the Kanopy app, you will be required to create an account, or to log in with either Google or Facebook. This is so that Kanopy can link your account to Massasoit. You are not required to use your Massasoit email or Google account as your Kanopy account.

Creating your Kanopy account
You will need to create an account in order for Kanopy to recognize you as a Massasoit student.

Kanopy app notes

The Kanopy app is slightly different than the full PC version. In the app, when you perform a search, it only searches our collection of 800+ films. You do not have the ability to request a film that is outside of our collection, which you are able to do in the full PC version.
Closed captioning can be turned on in the app settings.
