Video Content for JMU Courses

Instructors and faculty members, are you looking for video clips or documentaries to add to your courses or simply enjoy? JMU Libraries gives you access to thousands of streaming videos on a wide variety of topics.

Where do I find video content? You can start exploring documentaries in Kanopy, dive into our streaming video collection, or search all our video content.

Where can I get help? If we don’t have the video you want in the format you prefer, we may be able to get it for you! Visit our Instructional Use of Media Collection page to learn about how we can help you with finding video content, acquiring video licenses, digitizing physical videos, or making clips of a longer video for a Canvas course.

How do I create my own video for a class? We can help you record instructional videos or audio in our recording studio on the 5th floor of Rose Library or in the location of your choice! Visit our website to learn more about Media Production Support for Faculty in JMU Libraries.

How do I host instructional video content online? Visit our Video Management Services page.

Where can I find freely available video clips for my project? Visit our Free Media for Creative Use page.
