Films On Demand
At SCAD Libraries we are constantly reviewing our resources to make sure they best meet the research needs of students and faculty. As part of that process, we periodically assess new databases to see if they will be a good fit.
Currently, we are looking at expanding our subscription to Films On Demand.

Here are some of the featured collections:
- Health Video Collection
