Site dedicated to psychologist and behavioural scientist B.F. Skinner. The Foundation exists "to educate the public about B.F. Skinner’s work, and to promote an understanding of the role of contingencies in human behavior". The site used to include a 67-minute audio file (using Real Player) of a presentation by Skinner, ‘On Having a Poem’, which discusses verbal behaviour from a behaviour analytic perspective and the criticisms of that position. At present (2009) this is no longer available though small video files are steadily being added.

This video subscription service offers very high quality QuickTime movies. The very high resolution samples on this site are of quite spectacular quality, but will require at 150mbs of free memory to play or the computer will crash. A few clips are available free, but otherwise a subscription is required. The movies are organised by genre (people, places, music, events etc.).

The database has been developed by the Laboratory Animal Unit at The Norwegian School of Veterinary Science. It lists available sources, with detailed catalogue records, synopses, distribution and sale information. Searches may be defined by category (e.g. anaethesia, biochemistry, dissection, genetics) and/or medium (audio tape, computer programme, film, video etc.)

MERLOT (Multimedia Educational Resource for Learning and Online Teaching) is an American gateway to online learning materials for teachers and students in higher education. Sites are given peer reviews (i.e. by users), and are categorised under Arts, Business, Education, Humanities, Mathematics, Science and Technology and Social Sciences. Tracing moving image materials is best done by using the search term ‘video’ under the subject-specific ‘disicipline community’ option - a number of these sites can also be found on the Moving Image Gateway.

Part of the Internet Archive, which also covers archived moving images (The Internet Moving Images Archive), audio and software, the Wayback Machine holds cached versions of thousands of websites and billions of pages, allowing users to look at sites that are no longer available or at earlier versions of ones that are still around. An invaluable resource that, due to the gigantic nature of the holdings, is slightly hampered by the fact that no list of the holdings can be easily provided. This means inevitably that correct recall of the URL in question is necessary, or failing that, searching for it on the web first.
