Hello Kathleen, Thank you for responding to my inquiry! We are looking into using aviary. Glad to hear the positive feedback about it. Thanks, Lauren -----Original Message----- From: ARSC Library and Archives Discussion List <[log in to unmask]> On Behalf Of Kathleen DeLaurenti Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2020 7:08 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [ARSCLIB] best practices for reading room access to copyrighted audio We recently adopted Aviary, a new streaming platform with university friendly permissions. It allows your collection metadata to be discoverable online, while leaving institutions in charge of public, on campus, or private access. I feel like it's been a game changer for access to our institutions recordings. http://aviaryplatform.com Best, Kathleen DeLaurenti Peabody Institute On Thu, Jan 16, 2020, 5:04 PM Danielle Cordovez < [log in to unmask]> wrote: > At the Library for the Performing Arts, there is a room with players > for the majority of our a/v formats that connects to listening > stations in the main reading room.
