Kanopy

Kanopy is a video-streaming platform dedicated to thoughtful and thought-provoking films, offering a diverse collection of 30,000+ enriching movies, available to stream anytime and anywhere — from desktop to TV to tablet. They also offer a vast collection of programs from The Great Courses, and you're given 14 days to view an entire multi-episode course. Kanopy is free to anyone with a Hingham Library Card, and Hingham users get 30 tickets per month. Movies and shows use 2-5 tickets depending on length.

In addition to 30 tickets, you also have access to Kanopy Kids, which provides 30 days of unlimited access to every video in their collection. This means that once you play any kids video, you'll have unlimited access to every other video in the Kanopy Kids section for the next 30 days!
