UNCC’s collection of streaming video provided Films on
Demand has been significantly expanded for 2015. In addition to increasing the number of
titles in our Films on Demand Academic Collection, we have also started subscribing
to two specialized video libraries dedicated to Nursing and World Cinema.
This collection provides over 21,000 thousand high quality
streaming videos on business & economics, health & medicine, humanities
& social sciences, and science & mathematics, as well as travel and
fitness programming, home and how-to videos, indie films, and popular music
performances. The videos include Oscar, Emmy and Peabody award winning
documentaries plus interviews, instructional and vocational training videos,
historical speeches and newsreels.
This carefully selected, expansive compilation of over 1300
full-length programs and short-form video clips addresses the multifaceted
needs of tomorrow’s nurses. With the most comprehensive range of any nursing
streaming video service available, this collection is designed not only to help
nursing students excel in their studies and pass licensure exams, but also to
prepare them for long-term job success in an increasingly complex health care
system. The collection covers subjects
including Nursing Skills, Patient Care and Intervention, Diseases, Disorders,
and Disabilities, and Nursing Foundations, to name a few. (source)
With more than 380 feature films from the most renowned
directors across the globe, this unique collection includes the best of the
silent era, groundbreaking international directors, American and European
masterpieces from the mid-20th century, and award-winning
contemporary films featured by Global Lens. The collection shines a light on
the history of cinema while also providing a glimpse into the cultures and
issues of countries around the world, making it useful beyond film studies
departments by bringing value to programs in area studies, political science,
history, world languages, and more. (source)
We encourage you to explore our video collections, which
will sure provide with an additional lens to the subjects you are most
passionate.
