The Library licenses thousands of films to stream from a number of companies. Most of these films can be found in HOLLIS by searching for the title of the film or film series and limiting the resource type to film / video.
See Streaming Video @ Harvard for a comprehensive list of streaming video resources.
Below is a selection of the collections licensed by the Library.
- Alexander Street Video is collection of twenty-one videos databases including a variety of feature films and educational documentaries. Videos transcripts can be viewed and searched. Clips can be created and saved for future viewing.
