The Lindell Library subscribes to Films on Demand, a database with thousands of educational and documentary videos including films from Films for the Humanities & Sciences, Cambridge Educational, Meridian Education, and Films Media Group. Instructors can quickly search for relevant films and stream them using Moodle so students can watch them during the week instead of using valuable class time
