Section 110

I recently purchased a copy of a DVD at the request of a professor. I believe that the professor intends to show this film in class.

If a teacher teaches a novel in school, can they show the DVD of the movie under fair use?

I am asking this on behalf of the Elementary School in my district. (I work in the library of our district's high school).

We were asked about signage to post over the copier at a schools where educational materials are copied.

I am struggling to find information on using popular music in public K-12 schools. I have the following areas I am trying to find information about:

Is it permissible to make digital copies of choral music that is legally owned by the institution to students in choral and instrumental ensembles?

A couple committees at the college my library is at want to present copyrighted films in the theatre as part of an educational film series.

Does the TEACH Act allow a school to stream entire movies, if the movies could otherwise be shown in their entirety in class?

A community member is interested in gathering at the library for a non-staged, dramatic reading of a play published in the UK in 2016.
