I want to show a movie for my class. How do I see if we have a DVD or license for that movie?
The library has downsized the DVD collection for titles, but they are available for circulation for those interested in borrowing one. You can check on LS2 PAC or this link to browse all available titles we have in our library.
If you are interested in making a movie DVD available for viewing by your class, please email librarysupport@essex.edu to coordinate setting up the item for Faculty Reserve.
The Teach Act provides the ability to use a DVD for an in-person class.
Please note, there are several popular documentary and related movie titles available from the PBS collection accessible here at the Audio Visual materials tab, as well scholarly reviews of video/film content.
Thank you for your question. We look forward to working with you soon.
