Statement of Requirements
The Naval Postgraduate Schools Dudley Knox Library maintains a curated portfolio of information products from credible and proprietary sources that support the teaching, learning, and research needs of NPS students and faculty.
Selection is based on relevance to curricula and research interests, the quality of content, and technical delivery preferences. Because some information is better imparted by video than by written text, the Library needs to provide authoritative, academically-focused videos collections to support NPS instruction and research. Sage Video provides streaming video collections on a wide range of social science topics of interest to NPS researchers in NSA and GSBPP. It combines originally commissioned and produced material with content licensed from other authoritative sources. Types of videos include case studies, tutorials, interviews, lectures, documentaries, and more. Market Research has indicated that this requirement has a sole source.
