How do I search for movies, films, videos, dvds or other Audio-Visual material?
Answer
If you are searching for a specific movie title, you can use FindMore@NUSL or LINC.
In FindMore, you can do a search and then restrict the search to Content Type, Video Recording (Click on More... if necessary).
You will usually need to know the stack number of the item, so click in through the title to take note of the stack number.
You can also use LINC.
1. Click on LINC
2. Type in title of movie e.g Matrix
3. Select in "Videos/Films Collection"and search
Do note that
a) Audiovisual items are for viewing in library premises only. Lecturers who need to borrow this out to screen for classes please contact
.
b) Certain Digital/AV materials are restricted to staff/students taking a course of study
c) Persons who are not staff/students of NUS, and certain casual/part-time NUS personnel do not have access to Digital/AV resources due to license restrictions
