Why Use Multimedia Sources?

Research doesn't have to be read! Most people get an essay or project assignment and head straight to the databases. Don't miss out on our collection of physical DVDs, CDs, and audiobooks - or our online audio and video options:

  • Download an audiobook or MP3 of an article and listen to your research.
  • Borrow a DVD from SMCC or another participating MINERVA library to learn about your topic.
  • Watch streaming video segments via Films on Demand to learn something new or find a clip that will make a presentation pop.
There are lots of ways to incorporate multimedia content into your essays and projects. Get started with the search widgets on this page, or ask a Librarian for help.
