Loans of items in our collection are restricted to Yale faculty, teaching assistants, and students. Our primary
mission is to provide films and videos for classroom instruction and course
study purposes.
Faculty and students who wish to use the collection must apply for borrowing
privileges at the Film Study Center.
You must have a valid Yale ID to borrow materials.
Advance reservations are encouraged to ensure that the titles you wish
