Find Videos in the Library Catalog

The library provides access to videos both online and as DVDs/VHS. Like finding books, use the library catalog to search for physical video formats such as DVD and VHS, as well as streaming. Search by keyword, subject, or title.

Physical formats not available at Atkins or Hight libraries can be ordered through Interlibrary Loan using the "Order Item Through Interlibrary Loan" link in the catalog record.

You can use the library catalog to search across our collections for relevant films.  Simply enter your search terms (keywords or title), search & limit to eVideo in the Format column.  Any title with a "View Now" link is available through one of our streaming media collections.
