DVDs and VHS tapes are available for your use. You can search in the SPU Library Catalog for titles, keywords, or people and limit your results by format.
To show a DVD in your classroom, you may have to use an external DVD drive. If you need one, you can borrow one from the SPU Library or IT Department. It is strongly recommended that you test this technology in the room you are teaching about a week before you are planning to show the film.
It is very strongly recommended that you put SPU Library DVDs on reserve for the quarter that you are showing them. This practice ensures that your DVD will be available to you on the day you need it. It also allows for students who missed the showing or who want to watch the film again to see it in a timely fashion.
To show VHS tapes in the classrooms, you will need to bring in a VCR. Contact your liaison librarian about having a library-owned tape digitized for classroom use.
There are DVD and VHS players in the library on the Lower Level for student use.
