How to search the Catalog for videos
Videos are searchable in the library catalog and in individual streaming video database collections. Most streaming video content from our database collections is uploaded into the library catalog and searchable there.
Please note that there may be lag-time in uploading library catalog records for recent updates to streaming video database collections. Searching in both the library catalog and in relevant streaming video databases is the best way to ensure a comprehensive search.
Search Option #1: Library Catalog search for all video formats (hard copy and streaming)
- Go to the Advanced Search screen for the library catalog.
- Highlight the material type limiter for Video/Visual
- Enter your search terms and click Submit.
Search Option #2: Library Catalog search for only streaming video
- Go to the Advanced Search screen for the library catalog.
- Highlight the material type limiter for Video/Visual
- Change the collection limiter to Electronic Resources
- Enter your search terms and click Submit.
