Just Press Play: Resources on Video

When it comes to doing research in the TWU Libraries, often first to come to mind are books and journal articles. Also available to any member of the TWU community with an internet connection--whether a faculty or staff member or currently-enrolled student--is an extensive collection of video resources.

Reachable via the TWU Libraries homepage under Research/Databases A-Z List, the following databases offer access to videos (with audio) on a wide array of topics (to see a description of any database just visit our Database Descriptions page).

Watch the videos in their entirety or as clips, and link to them in course syllabi, papers, Blackboard classes or PowerPoint presentations. The possibilities are endless.
