Does the Library offer popular streaming service access for students/staff/faculty?
Does the Library provide a Netflix/Hulu/iTunes/Amazon Prime/PBS/BBC/Disney+ subscription for students/faculty?
Answer
Unfortunately, these consumer-based services (Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, etc) do not have a mechanism for institutional subscriptions, so the Library cannot provide access to them.
However, the Library licenses videos (including feature films and documentaries) via multiple alternate services.
You can find these resources by searching for Media in the library catalog, as you would a DVD or a book. Alternatively, you may explore the databases individually at: https://libguides.sdsu.edu/streamingmedia
PBS does allow educational use for a selection of their programming; however, that portion is limited to what is freely available off of their website: https://www.pbs.org/video/
