Shields Library

For film searches, Harvest is most efficient because it allows users to search by format:  http://libils.ucdavis.edu/F/?func=file&file_name=find-b&local_base=ucd01pub.  To perform this search, choose “Advanced Keyword” and, under “Format,” select “Videorecording.”  **Note, do not select “Film” because these are only reels.   Most of the films are available on a three-day loan with a valid student ID.  The most effective keyword searches are: “homosexuality,” “lesbian,” “gay.”
