Electronic publisher Alexander Street Press, US, has announced plans to launch an integrated online repository of academic video titles. Already the publisher of 10 distinct, discipline-specific streaming video collections containing more than 8,000 films, Alexander Street intends to rapidly expand its offerings to more than 10,000 titles in 2011 and to 20,000 by 2013.
The new platform, Academic Video Online Complete, will also make it possible for subscribers to cross-search all Alexander Street videos from a single interface. New collections will include Psychology, Health, General Science, Business and Economics, and Diversity Studies, among other topics.
As part of its rapid expansion, Alexander Street also announced the launch of three new video collections, each available to libraries and educational institutions via annual subscription or one-time purchase. These include Filmakers Library Online; Education in Video; and Counseling and Therapy in Video, Volume II.
Currently the publisher is offering a one-month Sneak Peek access to all three new video collections. Libraries and educators who register at http://alexanderstreet.com/newvideo2011.htm will receive a username and password until April 30, 2011.
