Film and TV
The University provides staff and students with access to a wide range of film, television, audio and visual art resources. As well as the legacy AV Collection of DVDs and music CDs (with viewing and listening facilities) on the 3rd floor of the Library, there are free streaming services you can access online with your Roehampton login.
DVDs and some eVideos can be found via UR Library Search, but a lot of streaming content can only be found by going direct to the platform - see links below. You can also go to the A-Z List of Databases and filter by Type: Video (or Image or Music).
