The films in this catalog are listed in topical arrangement, which consists of (1) preparatory topics,(2) structure,(3) interaction of radiation with matter, (4) physical states,(5) formulas, equations and calculations,(6) dynamics,(7) thermochemistry, thermodynamics, and electrochemistry,(8) equilibria, (9) inorganic chemistry, (10) organic chemistry,(11) biochemistry, (12) laboratory techniques, (13) physics review,(14) miscellaneous, and(15) special interest. Each topic is divided into one or more sub-topics. Each film is listed alphabetically by title, and is identified further by its producer, length, film type (16mm, 8mm, Super 8), color or black/white, catalog number, and price. A brief description of the contents of each film is included. Starred films in the catalog are those which have been personally used and recommended by members of the panel who compiled this catalog.

The Council collects and disseminates information through the activities of standing committeeson Freshman Chemistry, Curriculum and Advanced Courses, Teaching Aids, Teacher Development, Science for Non-Science Majors, Two-Year College, and Resource Papers. Additional ad hocgroups act as necessary to further assist the Council in providing leadership and stimulus for imaginative projects on the part of individual chemists. The Council is one of a group of collegiate commissions supported by grants from the National Science Foundation. TRUSTEES L. C. King, Chairman G. M. Barrow W. B. Cook W. H. Eberhardt C. C.

Slabaugh '71, Oregon State University Michael Kasha '69, Florida State University - PREFACE - In an attempt to advise the chemical community on the availability of useful films for lecture supplements or laboratory instruction, The Advisory Council on College Chemistry appointed a film panel in early 1968.This panel, consisting of Dr. Samuel Schrage, Chairman, University of Illinois at Chicago Circle, Dr. Norman Duffy, Kent State University, Dr. J. Leland Hollenberg, the University of Redlands, and Dr. Rod O'Connor, the University of Arizona, was charged with collecting information on college-level chemistry films produced within recent years. It was hoped initially that the films could be carefully reviewed so that some indication of their value to college teachers could be made.However, the unexpected volume of films available rendered this task impossible for the small panel to accomplish. The resulting collection in this catalog, then, is simply a listing of films available. EVery attempt was made to include all current films with correct descriptions and prices.* Only those films known to be unsuitable for college use because of recognized content errors or level of presentation have been deliberately omitted.In a collection of this magnitude inadvertent errors and omissions are, unfortunately, likely to occur and the panel will appreciate any suggestions for corrections and improvement. At the end of the catalog are several reply forms. Teachers wishing to advise the Council of films which should be added, deleted, or highly recommended are urged to do so. Almost all of the distributors of educational motion pictures have new films under contract. Teachers wishing to keep up with new releases should write to the distributors, requesting to be placed on mailing lists for chemistry films. It is hoped that this booklet will form a useful background reference for improved use of instructional motion pictures and that teachers will keep it up to date by adding new listings as they appear. Starred films in this catalog are those which have been personally used and recommended by one or more members of the panel. There is no intent to indicate that many of the unstarred films may not be equally good. It is never wise to use a film without previewing well in advance. Comments and suggestions for revision of this booklet should be addressed to: Advisory Council on College Chemistry Film Programs c/o Rod O'Connor Department of Chemistry University of Arizona Tucson, Arizona 85721 * Prices are generally subject to change without notice and listings in this catalog must be considered as approximate costs only.
