Talk Archive and Videos

Here is an index of all known recorded meeting presentations available to our members. They are available in three formats: online streaming, DVDs, and high-def Blu-Ray.

Ad Konings speaking on Lake Tanganyika sand dwellers, May 2010 (above). Steev Ward speaks on fish diseases, September 2009 (right)

Most presentations can be streamed directly online.

While most talks are only available to members, a small subset are freely viewable by the public.

DVD and Blu-Ray disks can be checked out from our library at most monthly meetings, and should be playable on most computers or modern DVD players. For ease of location, you can find the Volume Number by clicking on the talk or hovering over the disk icon in this index. From 2020 onwards, we have discontinued creating disks, but older talks will continue to be available.

We are able to make these talks available to our members due to the generousity of the speakers, and also because of the club’s good reputation: you as members have been excellent at respecting the rules. Please don’t copy the disks, and please do not share the streamable video. This will ensure that future talks will be able to join this library.

Is the list below too daunting? You can use the Search box to limit what you see (author, Title, Media, Tags). For instance, you can type "Free" to see all the free videos. Or try "Ad Konings". Or "Catfish".
