The BBC Reminiscence Archive provides access to a selection of content from the BBC Archives, designed to support reminiscence therapy. The principle of reminiscence therapy is to assist people who have dementia to interact and converse in a natural way by stimulating their long-term memory with material from the past. A number of reminiscence systems have been developed for people with dementia. RemArc is the BBC’s contribution to this growing set of supports for people with dementia and their carers. The site is organised by Themes (such as Animals, Music, Sport, Events etc.) and Decades. Users can choose whether to have Image, Audio or Video content. The results are randomised each visit, however items can be ‘favourited’ to return to later and there is an ‘information’ icon which displays a brief description of the item being viewed.
Major film distribution library covering medicine, sociology, arts, general education, anthropology and other areas of political and social interest. Concord distributes not only the Concord library but also distributes films and programmes for over 350 other bodies, including the Arts Council of Great Britain and Graves Audiovisual Library.

The categories are Addictions, the Arts, Children, Community Topics, Counselling & Mental Health, Death & Bereavement, Education, International, Medical & Health, Social Welfare, Women & Gender Issues. Many of their resources are available to buy and rent online via vimeo.
The BMA Library has one of the largest collections of medical films and videos in the UK, with material dating from 1924 to the mid-1980s. Film material from 1950 onwards and most of the video collections is available for loan. Most subject areas in medicine are covered, with the majority being most suitable for medical students and doctors. The audiovisual collection can be searched on the online catalogue.
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.
