The library supplies a variety of steaming video collections that you can access from anywhere, at any time, as well as a limited number of DVD videos that are available for checkout on campus. Our streaming video collections cover a range of topics across multiple academic disciplines and provide support for clinical and therapeutic training in psychology and counseling. Our DVD video collection is limited to materials that are unavailable in a digital format.

 

Use the links below for access. We recommend getting started by searching for a title or topic in our WorldCat Discovery library catalog, which will allow you to find materials across all of our video collections simultaneously. To narrow your search results to videos only, click on "Video" under "Format" in the menu on the left-hand side of the screen. Alternatively, you can limit your search to "eVideo" (streaming videos only) or "DVD Video" (DVD videos only), if you so choose. DVD videos may be checked out from the library according to our circulation policies. Streaming videos can be viewed online by clicking on the "View now" button in your search results.

 

We welcome you to scroll down the page and use the accordions to learn about each of our streaming video collections, which you can browse and search individually using the associated links.
