Despite a perhaps unfortunate sounding acronym, the EEVL Gateway has developed greatly in the last six years. Originally just covering Engineering, in addition it now also provides a wealth of information on Mathematics and Computing, mainly through its Internet Resource Catalogue, a collection of over 9,000 descriptions and links to quality Internet web sites. The service is run by Heriot-Watt University, Cranfield University, the University of Birmingham and the University of Ulster. The site provides engines to search for new articles, events, advances in manufacturing and even a section on job availability.
This site is no longer active, but the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine offers a capture of the website as it appeared on 16/07/2017. This does not include access to the moving images.

This offers either complete programmes or segments using Real or Windows Media Player, for low or high-band connections, with most having an accompanying transcript where users can click on a particular point in the transcript to access that point in the video. Topics covered include archaeology, astronomy, biology/nature, chemistry/physics, computers/technology, earth science, engineering/mathematics, medicine/health, and psychology/cognitive science. Some have links to PBS web features, teaching guides etc.

The Caltech Archives’ (California Institute of Technology) holdings include an extensive library of audio and video recordings of lectures and other scientific presentations. It holds the original tapes of the 1961–1962 Feynman lectures on physics. Also held is a series of about 60 interviews with physicists worldwide conducted by Caltech’s Kip Thorne while researching his book, Black Holes and Time Warps: Einstein’s Outrageous Legacy (1994). Most audio and video holdings are preserved in their original format and the Archive is incrementally migrating older analog media to digital formats for preservation and to make them accessible online. Audio and video material may be identified through a search of our catalogue by a name or keyword.

Formerly the BBC’s Videos for Learning and Teaching and more recently known as BBC Active, this is an important catalogue for the wide-ranging video tapes of previously transmitted programmes offered by the Corporation to educational institutions. Sadly, as part of its rebranding, the prices have increased up by up to a factor of five (the average cost per title is now £125). The material however remains irreplaceable. It includes such classic documentaries as Life on Earth, The Ascent of Man and items from the Horizon series as well as the perennial BBC Shakespeare titles. These can be by title or contributor, as well as by series and by the following subject categories: Anthropology, the Arts, Business, Drama, Education, Engineering, Environment, Literature, Health & Medicine, History, Natural World, Science & Technology and Social Issues. These titles can also be licensed separately for online learning, festival screenings and exhibitions. Please note that only a small part of the holdings are listed online and it is a good idea to request titles directly.

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.
