DVD Usage in Classrooms

Most teaching stations have transitioned to smaller desktop models that no longer include DVD drives. This change was implemented to reduce costs and accommodate the declining use of DVDs across campus.

We recommend using alternative online sources to find the video.

However, we recognize that some DVDs are still needed due to copyright restrictions that prevent content from being added to the streaming site. For this purpose, we have a limited number of portable DVD drives available for daily loan. These drives connect via USB-A. If a more permanent solution is required, DVD drives are available for purchase at $20 each, either for departmental or individual use.

To request a loan or purchase a DVD drive, please email us at it@olivet.edu or submit a ticket here.
