Netflix DVD's for Classroom Use

Collins Memorial Library offers a service for faculty to supplement our visual media collection: Netflix DVD rental. This service is intended for rental of material faculty might wish to show once in a class, but which need not become part of the library collection. Material needed for reserves or multiple viewings should be purchased using library funds.

Use this service for:

• DVD's under purchase consideration requiring preview
• classes where the content changes each semester
• experiments in teaching
• films unavailable for purchase

Use instructions:

Check Summit first, to see if you can borrow the DVD through the Orbis/Cascade Alliance

5 business days before the material is needed

The library will alert you via e-mail when the DVD arrives. It will be delivered to your campus department. Borrowing term will be for 7 days.

NOTE: The library is limited to 3 DVD's at any one time. We encourage you to return your DVD as quickly as possible, so we can exchange it for another.
