DMU Library has set up trial access to the following ProQuest online resources through to 30th June 2020 during the COVID-19 outbreak:

Academic Video Online (via Alexander Street Press) is a comprehensive video resource for university libraries. It delivers almost 70,000 titles spanning a wide range of subjects including Business, Counseling, Film, 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) in Academic Video Online makes it a useful resource for all types of patrons.

DMU students and staff can access Academic Video Online here. Individual videos are not yet included in Library Search but are accessible via the library's E-Resources Portal.
