Film and Video for Classes

Information for faculty on the process of requesting and showing films for classes at GRC.

Film and Video for Classes

Holman Library purchases and provides access to film and video for classes at GRC. Because we purchase and provide access to those videos in a range of ways, the process of requesting and showing films can sometimes be a bit confusing. The information in this guide will hopefully clarify your options for using films for your classes.

  • Please keep in mind that purchasing and digitizing videos takes time, so please reach out to the library a month ahead of time.

FIRST: Check for Films Available to You

Access streaming, DVDs, digitized DVDs from the Holman Library as well as King County Library film options

NEXT: Browse Films for Purchase (Kanopy and others)

Browse films available for purchase if the Library does not currently have what you need

THEN: Request Films to be Purchased

Request that the Library purchase films for your classes

FINALLY: Show Films in your Classes

Learn the steps to show films depending on the film vendor
