Academic Video Online offers a wide range of platform tools for learning, research, and teaching, including:

• Transcripts. Users view searchable, scrolling transcripts alongside many titles and continue to be added monthly.
• Clipping functionality. Users can easily create, annotate, and share video clips and playlists, and can embed them in third-party sites.
• HD-quality player. A video player with a 16:9 aspect ratio that streams up to 2.5 mbps allows for optimized high-definition viewing.
• Comprehensive permissions. Our platform enables in-class, on-campus, and remote viewing.

All content in Academic Video Online is also searchable in the Library catalog
