Digital Collections is the National Library of Medicine’s free online resource of biomedical books and videos. All the content in Digital Collections, unless otherwise indicated, is in the public domain. The 200+ films in Digital Collections come from NLM’s reel and videotape holdings of government and military-created productions. The source material was digitised to MPEG2 format. The films (the majority produced in the 1940s) may be searched by title, date range and persons involved in the production. The subject headings could be made more specific but a basic search finds words in the description. Topics include tropical medicine, dental health and military hygiene. The descriptions of the films are comprehensive giving full credits and a detailed description.
