Films & Videos: Getting started

The University of Lethbridge Library has many films and videos available in a variety of digital formats such as DVD, Blu-ray, and streaming. The Library also has the equipment you need to make use of these videos for personal study or class instructional purposes. 

While this guide will provide you with a basic orientation to the film and video collection there are many people available to help you should you need.

For help finding a video on a particular subject, questions about borrowing periods, information on what you can sign out of the Library, or assistance with equipment, please contact the Library Services Desk on Level 10.

Does the library lend out audiovisual equipment?

The library has audiovisual equipment for you to borrow, including:

• Digital cameras and camcorders
• Presentation equipment (overhead projectors, portable screens, flip charts)
• Public address equipment (microphones, stands, etc.)
