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.

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?

Are librarians included in these online read alouds?

Hello,
I am a music teacher and I already got the video book Zin! Zin! Zin! A Violin on Scholastic Bookflix. I was able to use the temporary username and password to bring the link to a Google Doc. Now when I try to copy that link to Seesaw it won't work. I'd really like to do this.

Hello,
St. Lucie Public Schools is wanting to record stories for our district local TV show (as another means for student without internet or limited devices in a home with multiple children to access educational material).

Hi,

Thank you for your temporary change in policy for our school educators. Does this also apply for public libraries who are trying very hard to keep in touch with our toddlers and preschoolers and there parents for that early literacy development that happens in storytime. Please consider us as well. Thank you!

I realize that this is primarily meant for teachers/librarians, but I'm wondering if it could possibly be extended to "people who just really like reading aloud and want to share during a difficult time"? I would love to post a read-aloud for access by friends and family on my personal Facebook page of Patricia Lee Gauch and Satomi Ichikawa's 'Dance, Tanya'. Thank you!
