In case you didn't get this message from OverDrive - Streaming Video format is going to be going away due to the Kanopy streaming service they now offer.

Last year, OverDrive acquired Kanopyhttps://click.e.overdrive.com/?qs=67883d6f2e2247e9980cb2d59b162de8a9631c9edb14fce10a84291b8f4b7aa29c0fb1d73cf1d8b393ef95881a38bf0362e424ec1eaa2661, a leading streaming video service for public libraries, colleges, and universities. Kanopy is now OverDrive's flagship app for streaming video content. Because of this, OverDrive is working to wind down the OverDrive video format.

All OverDrive video titles will be removed from the collection on September 1, 2022.
Users with active checkouts on these titles will maintain access through the end of their lending period.

Any members of the consortium interested in Kanopy are encouraged to reach out to Rob Rando to learn more about the service and next steps for getting started.

Thanks, Kate
