This year we are taking requests from instructors for films to be used in online classes or to be viewed asynchronously in in-person classes. As this list will change over the year, I am not posting a list here.
Most films requested for academic year FY23 expire on Aug 31, 2023. These films will need to be re-requested for FY24.
Films that were requested mid-year will have expiration dates one year from the month added.
See the SWANK Digital Campus Database for a list of Films:
To see our current selections, go to the SWANK Digital Campus database and search by title or scroll to browse. Alternatively, look in the library catalog for the film by title and look for online options.
