Most Library online resources can be accessed from off campus by current UD faculty, staff, and students. When using links on these pages, you may be prompted for your UDelNetID and password. Please report any issues you encounter while accessing Library databases, e-journals, or e-books.

Film Studies is an interdisciplinary field. The following databases, while not specific to Film Studies, can be helpful when researching in this field:
If you come across articles that are not available in full text via Get It! or in the database that you are searching, you can check to see if the library has a print copy of the journal which contains the article you are seeking. To conduct a search for a journal, note the journal's title, year, volume, and issue. Then, head to the library catalog, DELCAT, and search for the journal by title. (ex: International Journal of Educational Research).
When you have located the record for the journal that you are seeking, click "holdings" to see if we have the journal for the year in which the article you are seeking was published. If you need help with this process, please ask for help at the reference desk or by using our Ask A Librarian services.
