What is SILLVR?
SILLVR stands for Streaming InterLibrary Loan Video Resources; it is a new pilot program where libraries are sharing access to streaming video services they subscribe to.
Please note: SILLVR is only available to ASU affiliates.
How to Use SILLVR
SILLVR is being hosted by Prospector, so you'll use the Prospector interface for searching. You can get to Prospector from the Library Homepage by clicking on the "Books & eBooks" option (green box or bulleted list), and then clicking on Prospector from the bulleted list under browse.
Once on the Prospector page, type SILLVR (caps or lower-case, it doesn't matter) into the Search box.
- Searching just this term will bring back everything that is available as a streaming video, regardless of topic, if you're interested in browsing.
- Adding your search topic keywords after SILLVR will bring back the streaming videos available on that topic. (e.g. SILLVR climate change)
