You can copy as much as you like as long as you keep to the rules below:
"The rules for copying under a Screenrights licence are very simple. You can copy anything from radio or television (free to air and pay) and you can make as many copies as you like. You can also copy broadcast material made available online by broadcasters. This includes podcasts and vodcasts of your favourite programs. You can copy all or part of a program. You can also make up compilation tapes of material you have copied. The only requirements are that you have a Screenrights licence, that the copy is made for the educational purposes of the institution, and that it is labeled"

The Bremer Library can also record programs for your classes as long as you give us enough lead time. For more details please talk to your Learning Resources Advisors or the library staff.
