But what if you don’t have a DVD player? Don’t worry – we've got you covered!

The Bentley Library recently acquired several External CD/DVD drives that can be connected to a laptop, computer, or TV using a provided USB cable to view the DVDs. These drives can be checked out from Library Services with your Bentley ID for loan periods of either 4 hours or 7 days!

You can also watch films on the DVD players located in the Bowles Room on the lower level of the library.
