Film & Video Collection

DVDs, films, local documentary history, and streaming resources for teaching, research, and viewing.

About the collection

The Film & Video Collection is located on the third floor of the Michael Schwartz Library. DVDs, videos, and films in this collection circulate for one week to CSU faculty, staff, and students with a valid Viking Card. The full collection is searchable through DISCOVERY @ CSU.

Of special local interest is the Montage Film Collection, which includes more than 250 documentary films originally shown on WKYC-TV, Cleveland’s NBC affiliate, from September 1965 through December 1978. Currently, 53 of the original programs are available for viewing online.

Faculty may request that the Library rent videos or films not available in the Michael Schwartz Library’s collection for instructional use.
