is the link to one of the most interesting databases available to us through the SBC Library.
American History in Video by Alexander Street Press is a growing collection of over 4,000 videos from sources like The History Channel, PBS, newsreels, and film clips representing all eras in U.S. history.
It can be searched in a variety of ways, keyword or year for example. Many of the documentaries include transcripts, too.
Whether you are writing a research paper on the flights of Amelia Earhart or the Montgomery Bus Boycotts, or a simply a history nerd like so many of us on this campus, you will enjoy using American History in Video.
Give it a try and let us know what you think.
Please contact me if you have any questions about this new resource.
