Thank you so much for doing this. It is a generous move. As a Scholastic author, does this mean that I, too, have permission to read and share my Scholastic picture book? Thank you. Peace, Amy

I am a Second Grade teacher in La and would like to ask your permission to read your books on a private webpage for a Little Free Library.

Thank you so much. We librarians are trying to support intellectual property rights and support our teachers and students during this challenging time. This is a great help. We appreciate this immensely!

Pls,kindly let me join .

Does this apply to public librarians as well?

I am the Children's Programmer for the Coeburn Community Library, Coeburn, VA. I want to post a read aloud to my children due to cancelation of our programs as part of the Corona Virus Pandemic. I have read the above policy change concerning that. Do you have a list of books from which I may choose? Thank you for your assistance in this. Wanda E. Rose

Does this include posting read alouds on Facebook as well?

Thank You

Thank You,

Is there a list of Scholastic books we can read?
Thank you! This will be very helpful!

Thank you so much! I am a public school prek teacher. Most of the book I have at home for my own children are from Scholastic book fairs - all of my other books (including a lot of scholastic) are still in my classroom that I can't get - so this is very helpful and I can't wait to start recording! Together we are Stronger!

Hi. I also do children's programming at a library and was wondering what if any books I could read in a Facebook group on our library page.

Thank you

I'd like to finish the book, "A Long Way From Chicago" by Richard Peck. We will be using a non-public forum so I cannot attach Scholastic. I really appreciate you allowing us to do this so we can finish the book. From what I read I understand that I am to announce that Scholastic is giving us temporary permission and then I delete the recording before June. Thank you again.

Warm regards

Thank you Scholastic for extending this privilege to us during this difficult time.

There are a few books listed here:
https://eduprintables.com/scholastic-temporarily-permitting-online-read-alouds/

I had no idea of these guidelines and am glad I was informed! I have read a few books and I am wondering how do I know the guidelines about books beyond scholastic? I will be happy to follow these guidelines as I am getting a lot of awesome feedback and able to reach a lot of families and children! Thank you for creating the extended guidelines and I will delete from my page at the end of the school year!

I cannot tag you because all my postings to my students are private to them only on Class Dojo. Is that ok?

Thank you very much.

Thank You!

Any guidance for public libraries who are governed by municipal bodies with strict rules about records retention? Can we remove the content from user accessible sites by those dates but still keep the recordings for our records? Also this post is specifically for teachers, does it apply to libraries and youth librarians as well?

Is Orchard Books and Scholastic the same? Can I read it if it was published by Orchard books in 1996??

Wow now need to buy book

Wow no need to buy book read online instead

Do you have any opportunities for libarians to read one of your books on a video and , say, post a youtube unlisted link, just on our libary facebook page, so we can provide them with storytimes in June?

Considering that almost all schools are remaining online, I sincerely hope Scholastic intends to extend this policy and does so ASAP. Scholastic books are among my favorite and I want to be able to share them with my students. So disappointed to see so many publishers not being proactive regarding these policies and helping educators during this already extremely difficult time. I expect more from Scholastic particularly.

I would like permission to read David Goes to School on a closed platform for Frisco ISD's Early Childhood School students. The platform will remain open until December 31, 2020.

With the current virtual learning situation nationwide, is there any permission for teachers to record read alouds for their students on a closed, private platform?

Hello,
I work for the Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning and we were wondering if you have extended your read aloud online policy as other publishing companies have? If you could please let me know, that would be great. Thank you so much.

Hello,
My school district is starting the first 9 weeks (at least) online. Will Scholastic be extending its read-aloud permissions for teachers beyond the previous June 30,2020?
Sincerely,
Charlotte
