Swank Digital Campus is one of several streaming video platforms the library offers. It is a good source for many feature films, but also offers some documentaries, foreign films, and television shows.

Because films licensed through Swank are only available for a limited time period, they are generally not found in OneSearch.

When you first go to the database, you will see what films the library has already licensed through Swank. To see everything that Swank offers, set up an account by going to the Login button on the top right of the screen.

Once you are logged in, you may search more broadly through the offerings of Swank. Instructors must make a course reserves request, linked below, in order to access a film through SWANK that we do not already license. 

Films licensed through the Swank Digital Campus platform are available for a limited time and must be renewed when the current license expires. As long as there is a course reserves request active for the current semester, the course reserves team will automatically request film renewals when needed. 

Renewals for SWANK films cannot be made by the course reserves team more than 45 days before they expire.

Submitting a Course Reserves Request

Instructors can submit a course reserves request by filling out the form linked below. Once the form is submitted, the course reserves team will be notified and will process the request. Please allow several days for the approval process. They will contact you by email once the request is received as well as when the request has fully processed and the film is available.

If you have any questions regarding course reserves, please contact reserves@uark.edu.

You can also explore other video offerings from the library by searching in OneSearch, or by browsing other streaming media collections.
