Off-Air Recording Restrictions
There are a number of restrictions placed on the use of video materials made from broadcast television programs. The three most critical limitations are:
- Recorded programs are to be used only for face to instruction relating to curriculum.
- Recordings may be kept for no more than 45 calendar days after the recording date, at which time the DVD’s must be disposed of.
- Recordings may be shown to students only within the first 10 school days of the 45-day retention period.
Additional restrictions include:
- The off-air recordings must be made at the request of an individual faculty member for instructional purposes.
- The recordings are to be shown to students no more than two times during the 10-day period and the second time only for necessary instructional reinforcement.
- The recordings may be viewed after the 10-day period only by faculty for evaluation purposes -- that is, to determine whether to include the broadcast program in the curriculum in future.
- All copies of off-air recordings must include the copyright notice on the broadcast program as recorded.
- The off-air recordings may not be physically or electronically altered or combined with others to form anthologies. Off-air recordings need not be used or shown in their entirety.
- If several faculty members request recording of the same program, duplication is permitted but all copies are subject to the restrictions of the original recording.
The above guidelines are for commercial television broadcasts and some public television broadcasts, unless the OCM BOCES has negotiated other rights or licensing agreements, or other agreements are explicated stated by the rights holders.
