Viddla

More than streaming movies for libraries

Discover the new way to borrow films and keep your library's film selection current, alive and more accessible. With Viddla, you give all your borrowers greater freedom to watch movies when they are wild in Sweden.

Our philosophy is to offer more than "just" streamed film. By that we mean that great importance is placed on accessibility and immersion. Viddla offers editorial content in the form of themed articles that touch on the topic of film. We also make ongoing improvements to increase accessibility both for borrowers, the library and filmmakers. Some examples are investment in short films , stöd för syntolkning , och equality marking .

Always film day - with Viddla

Viddla is a smart film streaming service - developed especially for libraries and borrowers. The range is growing rapidly and the selection is made by our experienced editors in collaboration with our customer libraries.

Together, we can mirror and supplement your existing selection with everything from children's films to immortal classics, award-winning blockbusters and documentaries.

When your library takes out a Viddla subscription, your patrons can use the service with a computer, mobile phone or tablet. The most common is to watch the films via viddla.se in the browser. There is also a free app for iOS (iPhone, iPad etc). You can influence the offer and present tips from your library, but otherwise we take care of the rest.

We deliver catalog entries to all films and inform about news concerning the service itself. We also work to introduce films through various themes and inspiring articles so that your borrowers have the opportunity to discover films they might otherwise have missed.

Viddla's range continues to grow with new titles from the film companies we have agreements with. Since we work with DRM - the most secure encryption level for both customer and provider, we can cooperate with all film rights holders.

Sedan starten 2017 har vårt filmutbud vuxit till över 3000 filmer. Viddla arbetar med att leverera både bredd och kvalitet för att spegla och komplettera bibliotekens ordinarie filmutbud. I vårt urval fångar vi hela filmmediets bredd: Från barnfilm till odödliga klassiker, från storfilmer till dokumentärer och serier samt naturligtvis internationella filmer från hela världen.

For the children, we have a fantastic goldmine through, among other things, our access to SF's film catalog but also favorites such as Fåret Shaun, Pettson & Findus and Alfons. Among the classics we find, for example, Ingmar Bergman's The Seventh Seal and can enjoy Laurence Olivier in Hamlet. The documentaries cover such things as fashion – Dior and I, music – Searching for Sugarman, and nature – Meerkats, and examples of the international films are: Mustang (Turkey), Tango Libre (Belgium) and Under the cherry trees (Japan).

With Viddla you avoid start-up or investment costs. Your library only pays for consumption and you decide how many loans a borrower can make per month.

  1. a growing selection of quality for your library's selection...
    We attach great value to our film publications, where we prioritize quality over quantity. In our weekly magazine #torsdagspremiär, we publish new titles with self-written presentations. In this way, we give each film more space and it becomes significantly easier for customers and borrowers to follow the development of the offer. Each publication is highlighted, e.g. so here, on viddla.se and on Viddla's Facebook and Instagram accounts.
  2. ... combined with the library's opportunities to participate
    The selection is made by our film-savvy editors and the films that are found and added to Viddla become available to all affiliated libraries. We also involve our affiliated customers in the selection by presenting lists of film titles from our suppliers. Feedback from the library on which direction the catalog should take is valuable to us.
  3. katalogposter ingår
    För att skapa bästa möjliga upplevelse av Viddla för låntagarna (och biblioteken), ingår katalogposter enligt Libris-standard kostnadsfritt till alla Viddlas filmer! Detta innebär att låntagarna direkt kan klicka sig vidare till filmen via t.ex. ”Viddla” eller ”strömmande film”, efter en katalogsökning. Hela Viddlas bestånd kommer löpande att uppdateras till anslutna biblioteks kataloger oavsett system.
  4. safety first
    Viddla has the highest DRM protection (encryption protection), which protects both our customers and rights holders and is a requirement from some of our largest rights holders.
  5. 3000 filmer
    Vi har tillgång till tusentals titlar från en mängd kontrakterade bolag men vi jobbar selektivt med urvalsprocessen men sätter heller ingen gräns för hur många titlar vi kommer att ta in i Viddla över tid.

DRM – the most secure encryption level for both customer and supplier
To ensure that only registered users of the library have access to the films, all films are protected with digital encryption, DRM, which stands for Digital Rights Management.

Encryption means that only authorized users can start and play a movie. DRM is also a requirement from all major film companies to guarantee that the films are protected and cannot be copied or otherwise illegally used or distributed.

We are also registered at streamalagligt.se , the Patent and Registration Office's portal where you search for legal web services for e-film, e-books, music and other things.
You can find more information about DRM here and here you can find us at Streamalagligt .

Thanks to a close collaboration between BTJ and OLS, all libraries with Saga can now offer streaming films in a new and smart way. Without extra development, borrowers get access to their favorite films directly in the library catalogue. In the same simple way as for e-books.
