NewsFilm Online

The library is now subscribed to NewsFilm Online, a new service which allows playback and downloading of over 3000 hours of selected films from the ITN / Reuters archives. The films can be browsed by decade (1910s – 2000s) or by subject, including the arts, education, the environment, politics, religion, and science. News stories include Christo wrapping the Reichstag (Channel 4 News, 1995), In-a-gadda-da-vida at Tate Britain (Channel 4 News, 2004), and Tilda Swinton sleeping at the Serpentine Gallery (ITV News, 1995).

Log in to Newsfilm Online via the UK Federation link, select UCL from the drop down list, and log in with your usual network username and password. It can also be accessed via the a-z list of library databases.
