Resource Trial: Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) Education
UNL now has trial access to the EAI Educational Streaming Site, a collection of video and media art from the Electronic Arts Intermix collection. The collection includes streaming video of almost 2,000 titles by over 65 artists, from 1960 to the present. The trial continues through May 1. Please send your feedback to Casey Hoeve at achoeve@unl.edu.

Founded in 1971, Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) is a nonprofit arts organization that is a leading international resource for video and media art. A pioneering advocate for media art and artists, EAI's core program is the distribution and preservation of a major collection of over 3,500 new and historical video works by artists.

The EAI collection spans the mid-1960s to the present and is recognized as one of the most comprehensive video art collections in the world. The works in the collection range from seminal videos by pioneering figures — such as Nam June Paik, Bruce Nauman, Martha Rosler and Joan Jonas — to new digital works by emerging artists, including Seth Price, Paper Rad, Cory Arcangel and Takeshi Murata.

New Resource: IBISWorld Industry Reports
IBISWorld Industry Research, a collection of industry reports in the following markets: U.S., Canada, China, Mexico, United Kingdom, and Global. For the U.S., the reports cover 700 industries (identified by a five-digit NAICS code) as well as specialized reports on niche or emerging industries (e.g., industrial hemp production).

Each report contains an “at a glance” overview (including SWOT analysis), performance data, outlook data, products & markets analysis, supply chain information, competitive landscape analysis, lists of major companies, operating strengths and weaknesses, and key statistics.

In addition to the standard 30-40 page industry reports, the database also contains iExpert Summaries, which condense the integral elements from our industry reports into bite-sized paragraphs, graphics and tables, highlighting the key issues with a Q&A section that would be useful for job interviews.
