I’m often shocked by the number of people I speak to who don’t know that “Netflix through your library” is a service that does indeed exist! It’s called Kanopy, and like Overdrive or Hoopla, it’s a service that you can access for free with your library card (providing your library offers Kanopy in their array of digital services). Kanopy has an interface that is similar to Netflix’s, and offers over 30,000 movies, documentaries, and children’s programs. Your access is determined by your library and their subscription plans, but my local library offers 10 free credits per month, which I can redeem for 72-hour movie rentals.
