Videos and Other Media about Africa

Most of our videos are in the Media Library on the 2nd floor of Alden Library. Some Africa-related materials are also located in the Music/Dance Library in Glidden Hall and in the Fine Arts Library on the 3rd floor of Alden.

There are several hundred Africa-related video and film titles in the Library. The listings on these pages should provide easy access to a large portion of our collection. Note: It is quite likely that a given title can only be used on campus.

One way to browse the collection is to search ALICE, the Library's Catalog, in the "Limiting-to-Video-Mode" by "Africa" as a subject for example, then browse your results. In searching for a particular title, a new acquistion, or rather specific topic the above video mode provides good results.

California Newsreel's LIBRARY OF AFRICAN CINEMA is a good source to locate new materials.
