TV for Learning
Box of Broadcasts (BoB) gives students and staff at educational institutions access to TV and radio recordings for educational purposes.
BoB allows you to:
- View TV and radio programmes from the BBC going back to 2007.
- Choose and record any upcoming broadcast programme from 75+ TV and radio channels. The recorded programmes will then be kept indefinitely, with all content shared by users across all subscribing institutions.
- Record missed programmes from a 30 day buffer.
- Edit programmes into clips, create playlists, link to clips from Moodle, easily create one-click citations.
How do I get started?
BoB is available at Learning on Screen or via the LibrarySearch A-Z Database list.
See BoB short video tutorials and frequently asked questions.
Note: BoB is only available for use within the UK.
