While archive
materials (those predating 2007) and in house created materials will continue to be accessed through the Helix Media Library newer off-air recordings will be available through BoB National from 1st
August.
BoB National is a shared online off-air TV and radio recording service
for UK educational institutions. BoB enables all staff and students in
subscribing organisations to choose and record any programme from 60+ TV & radio channels including 10
foreign language channels. Recordings are then added to the BoB media
archive which currently holds over 1
million programmes, including all BBC TV and radio content dating
from 2007, many with searchable transcripts. All recorded content is shared by
users across subscribing institutions.
Staff and
students can record and catch-up on missed programmes on and off-campus up to
30 days after broadcast, schedule recordings in advance, edit programmes into
clips, create playlists, embed clips into VLEs & share what they are
watching with others. BoB has Apple iOS
compatibility making it accessible on smart phones & tablets. A single
click citation reference allows you to cite programmes in your work.
