Guide to Linking Videos in Blackboard
Films On Demand is our web-based digital video delivery service that allows you to view streaming videos from Films Media Group anytime, anywhere, 24/7! Choose from more than 6,000 educational titles in dozens of subject areas.
Counseling and Therapy in Video provides the largest and richest online collection of video available for the study of social work, psychotherapy, psychology, and psychiatric counseling—400 hours and more than 330 videos on completion. The collection's wealth of video and multiplicity of perspectives allow students and scholars to see, experience, and study counseling in ways never before possible.
The Film and Media Library is located in the lower level of Memorial Hall and houses a collection of approximately 7,000 non-print items, primarily VHS and DVD videos. Holdings can be searched through the online catalog or through a print catalog available in the Film and Media Library. In-house facilities for the utilization of materials include a screening room, two small-group viewing rooms, and carrels for individual use of all formats represented in the collection. Production services include audio and video editing, and duplication (subject to copyright restrictions). Videos are delivered daily (as needed) to the Curriculum Materials Center in Hagedorn Hall; this may be more convenient for faculty located in the east part of campus.
Circulation Policy
Hofstra University faculty may check out materials for one week; this period may be extended by special request. Hofstra University students may use materials in the Film and Media Library; all necessary equipment for viewing is provided.
