NewsFilm Online


NewsFilm Online is a growing online resource for news footage drawn from collections managed by ITN/Reuters. Access is currently free to users at UK colleges and universities. If you're traveling to the UK, stop by an academic library and ask to see footage from 1920 through 2007 on a variety of topics including art & culture, environment, politics, and sports.

For those of us on the other side of the pond, we can browse footage. Email me if you think the UW Libraries should subscribe to this product. While our budget is tight, I'm always willing to consider a product that fills the research needs of the UW Department of Communication.
