A How To on Using This Guide:

Located on the tabs towards the top of this guide are categories of resources: including but not limited to web based resoruces, academic databases for finding journal articles or film reviews, and information about finding films in the university's catalog. Some of these resources are related to Chinese studies, some are more broad to include general film studies, and some combine both in being specifically related to Chinese film studies. By clicking on the tab listed as Avaliable films, for example, you will find a list of DVDs and VHS relating to Chinese cinema readily available from the library catalog for checkout.

For additional resources see the Chinese Film Studies Research Guide on the Chinese collection website for the University of Iowa Main Library.
