Note about streaming videos

Tutt Library has access to streaming videos in several databases.

If you locate a video in several places, please use anything that isn't Kanopy,
which bases pricing on usage.

If a streaming video is not in these databases,
ask a librarian for more assistance.

For an introduction to Sociological research, watch the short,
5 minute overview to the right or a longer video linked below.
