The results of a project to collect shared memories of the Mediterranean are presented on this website, which provides free access to over 4,000 audiovisual items from the region. Fourteen institutions from the Mediterranean region took part in the project, including broadcasters from Palestine, Israel, Spain, France, Italy, Algeria, Morocco, Egypt and Croatia. The site presents a selection of curated clips, aiming to provide a picture of the heritage, culture and history of the Mediterranean area. The clips are accompanied by wide range of editorial content, offering the opportunity to explore by theme and collection, with maps and timelines to aid navigation. Themes cover arts, economy, trade, industry, eco-systems, water issues, food and cooking, migration etc. The site is available in English, French and Arabic. Now under Copeam.

This website is one of the outcomes of a project which set out to make available to the widest possible audience the sound collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum, Oxford University’s Museum of Anthropology and World Archaeology. The project has made available online a broad selection of the main ethnographic (field) sound collections held by the Museum. These include selections from the Edward Evans-Pritchard collection of recordings from made in Zandeland in South Sudan between 1928 and 1930, and recordings of the Bayaka tribe in the Central African Republic, made by pioneering ethnomusicologist Louis Sarno. In addition to the recordings themselves (which are hosted on SoundCloud), a useful array of contextual resources is available, including video interviews with a number of leading ethnomusicologists, sound curators, audio engineers, and other related experts, as well as talks from workshops which took place during the project programme, and stills and video clips made by Louis Sarno in the Central African Republic. In 2014 the Museum completed a major digitisation project on its film collections. Much of the material is unique and of significant historical importance, such as the films of Frederick Spencer Chapman made in Tibet, Greenland and Africa, Beatrice Blackwood in Papua New Guinea and Ursula Graham Bower in India.

GEOSET (Global Educational Outreach for Science, Engineering and Technology) is a freely accessible, searchable internet gateway to a selection of SET and related educational materials. Most of the videos take the form of ‘concept modules’ - rather than whole lectures or courses - focused on specific topics, in the form of split-screen presentations, in which the video of the presenter is in one window and the educational material synchronised and presented in a second window. GEOSET also links to other major sources of educational material such as at the Vega archive site and the Royal Society. Users can filter by age suitability, type of video, and subject.

This selection of documentaries from the long-running BBC archaeology series features a representative choice of programmes, from Roman Goose March in 1966, to the 1989 programme about Sutton Hoo. The series consisted of a mixture of filmed documentaries and live broadcasts. In the latter category a notable example was Silbury Dig - The Heart of the Mound in which Magnus Magnusson meets the archaeologists who have uncovered a tunnel leading to the heart of the neolithic earthwork.
