Video Streaming

Follow these three steps to link to the video:

1. Search the database for the video you would like to link to.
2. Click on the video title link to access the recording.  
3. Click "Permalink" to copy the link.  

Follow these six steps to add the film to your NYU Brightspace Course:

1. Go to NYU Brightspace and select your course.
2. Go to the section of the course page where you would like the video link to appear.
3. Click "Create New"
4. Click "Weblink" 
5. Paste the URL (Permalink) into the "Link" box and select "Open in a new tab."
6. Save.

Another option for access to content via the streaming databases is to have students access the films directly.  A benefit to this method is that students will (most likely) not have issues with broken or not proxied links to content.  Students can access the streaming database directly if you provide them with the NYU library permalink to the database.  To access the library permalink: 

1. go to the library homepage,
2. click on the "articles and databases" tab and under the "Content specific" heading,
3. select "Video Collections."  

You can then access the streaming database you would like to direct students to and on the right hand side of the database title there is a share icon.  Click on the icon to copy and paste the database permalink on your syllabus, email, or NYU Brightspace site.  You can then provide the students with the streaming database permalink and the title of the film you would like them to view.  They will need to authenticate in order to access the database, which will cause fewer issues with access.
