But I don't know (but thought I read it was okay) if there are any regulations against showing it. I know the web site for the film has resources for teachers. Would a library showing it for educational purposes be any different?
Thanks

A public showing of a copy of a movie intended for home use can be a violation of copyright, especially if you charge an admission fee. Educational institutions that want to show films often have to rent them from a distributor, the fee covers the cost of the public performance rights.

That is a very politically based movie, You probably can but you risk hurting the library. I wouldn't go to a library that showed that sort of thing for example.

Your library is funded by TAXPAYERS, and you want to show a propaganda piece. just because you libs found enough dead people to vote, doesn't mean that there are no more conservatives out here, and WE pay the majority of taxes anyway. Algore's hollywood fiction has been discredited, and you should ask for your money back.

It would only be considered educational if it was non-fiction, don't bother.
