Finding Streaming Videos in the Catalog

The TCC Libraries have a large collection of videos available to faculty and students. Some of the videos can be checked out, some are available for in-house viewing only, and some can be accessed online. It is easy to tell which are which by how they are noted in the library catalog.

 

 

 

 

When searching the catalog, select Streaming Video to get a list of movies and documentaries you can view online.
