Social Work Related Videos

Social work-related videos and DVDs are held at the Social Work Library Reserves Desk. These materials are available to holders of currently valid CU IDs. The loan period for these materials is 2 hours for students and 3 days for faculty (for reviewing and classroom use). Student borrowers may view videos and DVDs on the media viewing stations in the Social Work Library.
