DVD Requests

Library Response

Have Understanding Bacteria and Understanding Viruses videos available for the students here at the Learning Commons (in Lakewood Ranch Campus.)

While we do have a copy of Understanding Viruses in Bradenton (VHS) the Library does not own a copy of Understanding Bacteria.  These titles are from 2001 and are too old for us to purchase.  However, there are newer streaming videos available in our Films on Demand and VAST Library Databases which are viewable anywhere.  www.scf.edu/library and click on Databases by Subject, then eBooks & digital content.  You will need to log in.
