NFB.ca (National Film Board of Canada)

NFB.ca is the National Film Board of Canada's streaming video service. The original product, NFB.ca, is intended primarily for personal use. University of Alberta staff and students can create a CAMPUS profile and access additional content that has been created for educational use.

NFB.ca

Access to NFB.ca, the National Film Board of Canada's streaming video archive, is available for personal use subject to the notices on their site.

CAMPUS

CAMPUS content includes NFB.ca content, and also includes additional films, resources, and functionalities specifically developed for educators. Access to CAMPUS is available for educational use subject to the notices on their site. For example, "You may use the Website and the Content for bona fide educational and research purposes only, and may not use them in any commercial or for-profit manner. You may access the Website and the Content outside of a school facility solely for bona fide educational and research purposes. Individual teachers can present the Website and the Content to groups of students within a classroom setting of 150 students or less provided no entry fee is charged."

CAMPUS content is available to University of Alberta staff, faculty, and students who have created a profile:
