All Stories

Carthage has access to a trial of a new video collection of the CBS program 60 Minutes from 1997-2014 until April 14. This collection provides 350 hours of video from 17 years of broadcasts. The videos cover topics on history, business, health, law, international affairs, performing arts, and many more. The collection can be found in the A-Z database list in Research Resources under “New/Trial Databases.”

The collection also aides information discovery with categorical browsing, advance search features, and facets to limit search results. Other features such as synchronous scrolling transcripts that goes along with the video and playlist-building functionality allow students and faculty to best use these videos to supplement their courses.

We invite everyone to take a look at the trial database before April 14 and let LIS know if this is something that would be valuable for us to add to the collection on a permanent basis.

If you have any questions or suggestions about 60 Minutes: 1997-2014 please contact Elizabeth Lang at elang@carthage.edu.
