Hi Jennifer! Kristin Cooney here from ro*co films. While it doesn’t specifically focus on the use of therapy dogs, one of our most popular titles, Escape Fire: The Fight to Rescue American Healthcare, does include a very compelling and informative section on how the military is employing some alternative treatments for soldiers experiencing PTSD (like acupuncture, meditation, group therapy). The film was a Sundance Film Festival award winner, and is pretty amazing!
With our new streaming platform, Film Platform, your faculty member would have the ability to bookmark and share the specific sections of the film that focus on the military (which would probably be about 30-45 minutes in total). Here’s a link to the film page on Film Platform, where you can learn more, watch a trailer, etc! You will see the military section featured in the trailer, but if you (or your faculty member) would like to preview the full film, I’d be happy to send a preview link! http://filmplatform.net/product/escape-fire/ Our A-La-Carte pricing for a single title streaming licensing is as follows: 1 Year Streaming license: $225 3 Year Streaming license: $375 I hope this is helpful, and please let me know of any questions!

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
