Search the Film and Video Catalogue
This is our main catalogue that includes film dating back to the 1890s as well as present-day digital video productions. It contains professionally-produced newsreels, educational and promotional films, documentaries and corporate videos as well as the amateur work of cine clubs, student filmmakers and enthusiasts - and much more besides.
Use the Search Help function to get tips on searching the catalogue more effectively.
You can watch hundreds of the titles online, but you can discover more about viewing and using what you find in the catalogue on our Accessing the collection page.
Separate searchable catalogues are available for BBC news items and documentaries which were broadcast in the North West region from the 1960s to the 1980s.
