The DEFA Film Library at the University of Massachusetts Amherst is an archive and research centre devoted to a broad spectrum of filmmaking from, and related to, former East Germany and the GDR. It houses an extensive collection of 35mm and 16mm prints, DVDs, books, periodicals and articles. The Library supports an international network of researchers with a range of regular programming — such as biennial Summer Film Institutes and Filmmaker’s Tours, and workshops and panel discussions at major conferences in the US and Europe that helps shape national and international research on [East] German cinema during the global Cold War and on related films from Germany and elsewhere. The DVDs offered for sale are listed in the Store.

A mail order supplier of DVDs, videos (and books) available in Germany. Titles can be located by title or genre. Will supply programmes worldwide.

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.
