Music and more

UHMC students and faculty now have access to three new streaming media serivices:
  • Naxos Music Library is the world's largest online classical music library. Currently, it offers streaming access to more than 43,030 CDs with more than 616,300 tracks.
    On average, 500 new CDs are added to the library every month.

    The Naxos Music Library offers the catalogs of more than 50 classical, jazz and world music labels with more labels joining every month. Among the labels whose catalogs are included in the service are leading independent classical labels such as BIS, Chandos, CPO, Haenssler, Hungaroton, Marco Polo, Vanguard Classics, VOX, and of course Naxos. World music content is provided by ARC, Celestial Harmonies and others; and there is also jazz, film music, nostalgia, classic and contemporary rock content. 
  •  Naxos Spoken Word Library - literature and poetry ranging from medieval times to the twentieth century, and many newly written texts supplement an ever-expanding range of non-fiction. 
  • Naxos Jazz Library - streaming jazz library.
The Naxos libraries can be accessed from any internet enabled device. An iPhone/iPod touch/iPad application is available from the iTunes Store.

The UHMC Library also provides access to Films on Demand.  This streaming media service gives UHMC students and faculty access to thousands of films online.

Pass the popcorn

Films on Demand (streaming online video ) is now available to all UHMC students, faculty, and staff. Please access this resource via the UHMC Library website. Direct links or bookmarks will not work.

These films are available for use in classrooms and online. You can embed links to the whole video or parts into an online course, syllabus, or any other way you want to use them.  Students also have full access and can use the videos in presentations and papers.
