How to find copies for borrowing

Many museums contain video libraries. Some examples are:

National Gallery of Art loan program for educational materials. To obtain videos from the collection of the National Gallery of Art's Division of Education.
Sullivan Video Library at The Speed Art Museum, a sizable collection of art-related videos available to educators at no charge.
Film, Video and DVDs from the collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts

Museum libraries have diverse rules on lending their videos. Some will only lend to teachers. Others will permit inter-library loans. Some require videos to be viewed only by scholars or by the public on premises.

University and public libraries may contain art videos or be able to borrow them from museum libraries for viewing by patrons. TFAO has found the public libraries usually have very limited collections of videos listed in this catalogue.

Google searches

Google searches containing the title of a video plus the letters "VHS" and "DVD" are useful for both finding lending libraries and sources for purchasing videos.
