Need a Study Break? Check Out “Films on Demand”

One of the many resources that OSU University Libraries provides access to is Films on Demand, a database containing over 45,000 educational videos, including full-length films and documentaries. These videos cover a wide range of academic topics and include content from the American Museum of Natural History, BBC, HBO, The Ken Burns Collection, National Geographic, PBS, and many others.

To browse, visit Films on Demand and click “View All” under the Subjects column in the Main Menu. From there, the options are endless. For example, Criterion Collection buffs might choose “World Cinema,” under which they can find links to La Dolce Vita (1960), The Home and the World (1984), Throne of Blood (1957), and more. Whether you’re looking for knowledge or entertainment—or a little bit of both—you’re sure to find something that piques your interest.
