New Interface for Streaming Video databases

Alexander Street Press has launched a new interface in January 2014. The new interface will include enhancements such as:

• Ability to create citations in MLA and APA format
• Improved search facets to narrow search by playwright, production company, date performed and much more
• A new video player and toolbar that lets you bookmark your place in a video, choose between multiple layouts; and bit-rate streaming that automatically adjusts to the highest quality file the user’s bandwidth can support.
• Coming soon - a dedicated smart phone app.

Note: Links to specific videos will continue to redirect in the future.

Test out the new interfaces for the databases below:
