Movie Browser Now Available Online

The Listening Room's Movie Browser has been a familiar resource for a number of years. While the hard copy version began as an effort to provide patrons a way to browse the room's video collection, it has grown to include the video collection in the AV Center. Because of this and in response to patron requests, the master list of the Movie Browser is now available online.

To access the Movie Browser Online, go to http://www.lib.grinnell.edu/collections/MovieBrowserOnline.html and select one of the available links. The videos in the Movie Browser Online are arranged in title order and split between six (6) files. The browser includes the film's format (DVD or VHS), call number and whether it is restricted to library use only. If it is located in the AV Center or requires a multi-region player, this information should also be noted; otherwise, the video should be in the Listening Room and playable on standard US equipment. To get more information about a specific title--such as whether a film is checked out, click on the title's link to access its record in the library catalog.
