Pickings were slim at New Arrivals, so it seemed like a good opportunity to share a new online resource. PBS films are often useful teaching tools – plus, they’re entertaining.
The UW System used year-end funds to purchase this collection. Unlike other PBS content in Films on Demand or other services, these titles are owned so we won’t lose access to them. More than 1,400 films are included and I’ve already seen a few I might want to watch. For instance, 1421: The Year China Discovered America. This collection covers many subjects, ranging from art to science, diversity to business, history to social movements.
