[Eril-l] rights to stream Beyonce's Lemonade video at campus event

[Laura Burtle]

It is very different to show it in a class. That falls under 17 USC 110(1) and does not require a public performance license. Showing it at a campus event definitely does.

Hi Molly,

While not exactly the same as your situation, a professor  at NYU who teaches about Black Lives Matter showed Lemonade in class during the fall (http://www.blacklivesmattersyllabus.com/fall2016/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.blacklivesmattersyllabus.com%2Ffall2016%2F&data=01%7C01%7Clburtle%40gsu.edu%7C133e28795fd344ce0e9e08d444b8ad2d%7C515ad73d8d5e4169895c9789dc742a70%7C0&sdata=Wz4s3kda2KFnuiEeOnvZEfL8IjXxQEuHeBk%2FYiQAFPM%3D&reserved=0> - scroll down to 12/2). Perhaps it would be worth reaching out to him to see how he navigated the public performance rights. Here is his contact information: http://www.blacklivesmattersyllabus.com/frankleonroberts/<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.blacklivesmattersyllabus.com%2Ffrankleonroberts%2F&data=01%7C01%7Clburtle%40gsu.edu%7C133e28795fd344ce0e9e08d444b8ad2d%7C515ad73d8d5e4169895c9789dc742a70%7C0&sdata=jtMSxXDBdQ4vX%2Bj6%2B7b1H6Wr%2BkodKMUzKdqe%2BWLlkE0%3D&reserved=0>

Please update us on what you find - a very intriguing question!!

Best,
Eugenia

Hi all, we are a public university library and a professor on our campus would like to show Beyonce's Lemonade video at a campus event.  I've checked for the rights to stream with Sony, HBO, Swank, and Tidal.  I cannot get a response from Tidal and all others say they do not hold the rights.

Any ideas?  Thanks!  Molly
