If you have questions or comments on the navigation or any aspect of the evolving Auraria Library Home page or what's offered on the site, just let me know. If I don't have the answer, I'll get you to the person who does. My contact information: Ellen.Metter(at)ucdenver.edu
New & Enhanced: Online History & Film Collections
New!
- 19th Century U.S. Newspapers. This collection garnered a great deal of positive input while on trial. I'm glad to say the purchase was approved. 19th Century Newspapers is a searchable full-text facsimile-image database of 19th-century newspapers from across the nation chronicling American culture, daily life and events.
- Confidential Print: Middle East, 1839-1969. A full-text searchable collection of historical documents from the UK National Archives covering such events as the Egyptian reforms of Muhammad Ali Pasha in the nineteenth century, the Middle East Conference of 1921, the Mandates for Palestine and Mesopotamia and the Suez Crisis in 1956, the partition of Palestine, post-Suez Western foreign policy and the Arab-Israeli conflict. The Confidential Print series originated out of a need for the British Government to preserve important papers generated by the Foreign and Colonial Offices. Some of these were one-page letters or telegrams; others were dispatches describing important personalities or economic analysis; and others were large volumes or texts of treaties. All items marked ‘Confidential Print’ were printed and circulated immediately to leading officials in the Foreign Office, to the Cabinet and to heads of British missions abroad.
- Opera in Video. A collection of streaming videos of the most important opera performances, captured on video through staged productions, interviews, and documentaries.
- Worldwide Political Science Abstracts. (coming this fall)
- Look for a substantial increase in full-text access in America, History and Life, Historical Abstracts and the Film and Television Literature Index. The Library is investing in these expansions to supply more efficient access to writings discovered through these popular indexes.
Added content to Theatre in Video streaming videos
- Twenty-four new films have been added from the Broadway Theatre Archive to the Library's Theatre in Video database. Performances include works by Edward Albee, Jean Anouilh, Eugene O’Neill, Lanford Wilson, Arthur Miller, William Saroyan, Neil Simon, Anton Chekhov, Thornton Wilder, and Wendy Wasserstein, among others. Featured actors include Geraldine Fitzgerald, Linda Hunt, Meryl Streep, Alfre Woodard, John Lithgow, Jeff Daniels, Faye Dunaway, Kevin Kline, Frank Langella, Blythe Danner, Olympia Dukakis, Susan Sarandon, Harvey Keitel, Sir John Gielgud, and Sir Ralph Richardson.
Titles include Death of a Salesman, The Skin of Our Teeth, The Time of Your Life, Uncommon Women and Others, The Seagull, An Enemy of the People, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide, Fifth of July, The Good Doctor, The Pirates of Penzance, and more. See them all here on the What's New page.
Free U.S. history primary resource collections
- Founders Early Access. The Rotunda Founders Early Access project makes available for the first time thousands of unpublished documents from our nation’s founders in a free online resource. Collected over many years by the Founders documentary editions, these letters and other papers penned by important figures such as James Madison, John Adams, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson offer a wider view of the early Republic.
- Family Letters Digital Archive. This Archive is a companion to the letterpress volumes of the Papers of Thomas Jefferson: Retirement Series*, published by Princeton University Press. The documents archived on this site provide full text-searchable transcriptions of a rich body of correspondence between Jefferson’s immediate and extended family. The letters, and related documents, provide personal insights into aspects of Jefferson’s life that are unlikely to appear in his own writings. Falling in the years between 1809 and 1873, with a concentration on the years between 1809 and 1835, many of the letters are authored by women and contain vivid accounts of domestic and social life in nineteenth-century Virginia. Few of these documents have ever been published, and the Project seeks to make them accessible to the public through this electronic edition.
*Auraria Library will be acquiring this series in print or online, depending on pricing, this fall.

"In this new, highly anticipated update of her pioneering Killing us softly series, the first in more than a decade, Jean Kilbourne takes a fresh look at how advertising traffics in distorted and destructive ideals of femininity. The film marshals a range of new print and television advertisements to lay bare a stunning pattern of damaging gender stereotypes--images and messages that too often reinforce unrealistic, and unhealthy, perceptions of beauty, perfection, and sexuality. By bringing Kilbourne's groundbreaking analysis up to date, Killing us softly 4 stands to challenge a new generation of students to take advertising seriously, and to think critically about popular culture and its relationship to sexism, eating disorders, and gender violence"--Container.

The Mean World Syndrome: Media Violence & the Cultivation of Fear. 75 Minutes. P96.V5 M436 2010. For years, debates have raged among scholars, politicians, and concerned parents about the effects of media violence on viewers. Too often these debates have descended into simplistic battles between those who claim that media messages directly cause violence and those who argue that activists exaggerate the impact of media exposure altogether. The Mean World Syndrome, based on the groundbreaking work of media scholar George Gerbner, urges us to think about media effects in more nuanced ways. Ranging from Hollywood movies and prime-time dramas to reality programming and the local news, the film examines how media violence feeds a fear-charged cultural environment that cultivates a heightened state of insecurity, exaggerated perceptions of risk and danger, and an appetite for hard-line and repressive political solutions to social problems.

Believing he is alone on his mission, his sole purpose is getting back home on his own.

Filmed in Dewas, Nainital and Allahabad in India and in Berkeley, California, this film is an intimate look at this ancient Hindu practice.
Secret Circles, Hidden Prayers. 55 Minutes. BP605.N46 S43 2009. Follows a cross-section of Americans who consider themselves Neo-Pagans. In a country where there is a Judeo-Christian paradigm firmly in place, the cost of deviation can be social alienation, and a need for secrecy. At odds with the mainstream, four modern Pagan families reinterpret spirituality outside the conventional American context and reveal why they've been hesitant to 'come out of the broom closet'. In the movie, a solitary practicing Wiccan, or 'witch' talks about her childhood growing up as a Christian and what led her to Wicca. A Pagan family addresses issues and fears they have raising children under their faith. And a Nevada war widow fights to get her husband's religious emblem recognized by the Veteran's Administration.
