Some library streaming services have apps available on various devices. If a streaming service is compatible with a device, you can view library films on that device from OFF-campus. Check information on the particular streaming service website (e.g. Kanopy) for more information.

Additionally, users may be able to stream library films to compatible smart TVs that are connected to the Dickinson network via a wired ethernet port.

Many wireless streaming devices CANNOT be used on campus.  Dickinson uses secure Wi-Fi Protected Access II (WPA2) standard which requires both a username and password to connect.  This prevents some consumer devices (which are designed for home networks requiring only a password/key) from connecting.

See the Dickinson Network Device Guidance link for more information about which devices may be used on campus.
