You can narrow your search in CLIO by format to find DVDs and streaming media in the libraries collections. While films available streaming are sometimes cataloged individually, this is not always the case. It is always best to search individual databases for streaming content. For more streaming media collections please review the streaming media guide here: https://guides.library.barnard.edu/streamingmedia.
For major feature film collection Columbia and Barnard each offer subscriptions to Kanopy and Swank. The titles offered in each are different, so be sure to search both the Columbia and Barnard collections for each database.
Barnard Library purchases streaming media through a variety of platforms, but primarily through Kanopy and Swank. At this time streaming media purchases can be made for in-class use only. Please use the BLAIS Reserves Department's Film Reserves Request Form for all streaming media requests. For more information on reserves please see the Faculty Guide to Library Materials and Access for Students.
Public Performance Rights (PPR) licenses are required when screening films for the general public. Generally speaking, PPR is required for film screenings outside of a limited access classroom setting. Barnard Library does not purchase PPR licenses for public film screenings.
Once you have secured PPR you will need to make arrangements with the following departments:
For more information on PPR please see Barnard's Film Screening and Copyright FAQ.
