Films

The library owns and subscribes to both physical and streaming media. Explore our catalog or any of these platforms to find streaming media:

  • Academic Video Online - The most comprehensive video subscription available to libraries, it delivers more than 64,000 video titles spanning the widest range of subject areas including anthropology, business, counseling, film, health, history, music, and more. 
  • Films on Demand - A comprehensive, curriculum-focused video subscription providing unlimited access to thousands of videos. With over 26,000 titles and counting, Films on Demand includes Oscar, Emmy, and Peabody award-winning documentaries and A-list performances spanning the arts.
  • Kanopy Streaming Video - Provides access to videos that can be streamed and viewed instantly. Collections include feature films, educational documentaries, and rare archival footage on a variety of topics.

    Videos available in Kanopy that are not part of the library’s collection can be requested, but there are added costs associated for the Library budget for each film. For this reason, requests will be reviewed and some may be denied or delayed.
  • Swank Digital Campus - Provides the Rollins community with a legal streaming resource on and off campus, for a limited number of films. Public performance rights are not included.
