Academic Video Online is the most comprehensive video subscription available to libraries. It delivers video titles spanning the widest range of subject areas including anthropology, business, counseling, film, health, history, music, and more. Curated for the educational experience, the massive depth of content and breadth of content-types (such as documentaries, films, demonstrations, etc.) makes this database a useful resource for faculty and students alike.
Technical Note - Permanent Links and Embed codes in Academic Video Online's collections do not function as expected. This has been reported to the vendor, who is aware of the issue. A workaround exists that involves replacing the term "proquest" in the URL string with "alexanderstreet" instead. As an example, the generated permanent link for a Alexander Street video may look like:
https://0-search-proquest-com.librus.hccs.edu/view/work/bibliographic_entity%7Cvideo_work%123456
By replacing the term "proquest" above with "alexanderstreet," the permanent link would then look like:
https://0-search-alexanderstreet-com.librus.hccs.edu/view/work/bibliographic_entity%7Cvideo_work%123456
and should function as expected. The newly altered link or embed code should then allow off-campus access to valid users.
