The CEAS Film Library is one of the largest East Asian DVD collections in the United States, comprising over 5,000 titles from China, Japan, and Korea. It includes historical films, documentaries, television series and contemporary cinema. Many of the films are imported from overseas and are difficult to find in the U.S. Films are available for check-out free of charge to any current University of Chicago student, staff or faculty member. CEAS Associate Members may also borrow films.
