  I would like to video myself reading books for my students during this time that school has shifted to online for COVID-19. Do I need to request permission from the publishers or authors of the books?

  In recent days, as many teachers have faced an abrupt shift to online teaching, there have been questions about how copyright law applies to the translation of classroom-based practices of reading aloud to students to the digital environment. This article explains how copyright law -- specifically fair use -- permits many classroom read-aloud activities to be translated to the digital environment.   https://tinyurl.com/read-aloud-online
