How do I search for films and documentaries?
Answer
The library has several databases that provide access to some streaming films/documentaries as well as a DVD collection. The streaming film databases are:
- Academic Video Online: Academic documentaries and programs
- Swank Digital Campus: Feature films
- Kanopy: Popular documentaries and some feature films
- Docuseek: Documentaries
To find DVDs, you can search the library catalog by title for a specific film/documentary or by topic. If searching by either, select DVD from the Format menu on the results list.
