Abstract The rapid shift to online instruction at academic institutions due to the COVID-19 pandemic increased demand for streaming media resources offered by academic libraries. This shift prompted many academic libraries to employ new methods to provide access to streaming content. The authors sought to survey academic libraries with the purpose of assessing activities libraries participate in regarding streaming video acquisitions. This article examines the results of a survey the authors created and distributed to academic libraries in the United States. By sharing these results, the authors aim to provide useful information for others who manage streaming video collections.
