Search each collection directly for the most up-to-date listings, or use a Primo search from the library homepage to search across multiple platforms.
To search multiple collections at once, search using Primo from the library homepage: limit Resource Type to 'Videos.' Kanopy films are not included in Primo. You can see a list of current Kanopy titles licensed by the SJU libraries in our Kanopy FAQ.
Additional platforms:
Faculty may request streaming video for course using the Streaming Video Request form.
To discuss options or alternatives for titles unavailable to stream, or to request a DVD purchase, contact your library liaison or email/chat with library staff through the interface on the SJU Libraries homepage.
For help with embed codes, captioning, and clips click on the specific platform tab to the left. If you need additional help please reach out to the library via chat or email on the SJU Libraries homepage.
We currently have several streaming video databases accessible through the library. You can access the main database platforms from our Databases A-Z list and from the links on the individual pages in this guide.
Each guide provides access to the specific vendor database, general content information, and any specific technical requirements for viewing videos. Guides also provide information for creating clips of larger videos (where this option is available) and finding permanent links for the videos that can be used in Canvas course pages and modules.
Notable Features
Our streaming video content options all provide time stamped transcripts that are usually keyword searchable and hyperlinked for jumping to specific sections of the video.
All of the videos offer closed captioning options for increased accessibility.
The vendors highlighted here provide citation help that supports MLA, APA, and Chicago styles.
