The library has more than 11000 films. Based on Brick Lane in London, our aim is to build a free comprehensive documentation - on Video or DVD formats - accessible to everyone. For the time being we offer rental options which help us funding the library.
Rental Options

Note that you can’t take more than 3 films at a time. Films are still due after 1 day (new releases) and 3 days (all other films). You can also share your rental plan with 1 other person.

Terms and Conditions of Rental
To become a Member of the library you need to present:
1 recent proof of address (e.g. bill/bank statement) which must be dated within 3 months and 1 form of personal I.D. (e.g. driving licence/credit - debit card/passport).
All films for rental remain the property of Close-Up Videos Ltd.
Once rented, the care of the film becomes the responsibility of the Member until returning the film to the library. Each DVD returned that presented a viewing problem will be checked. Once checked and if the film is at fault a credit will be given to you. We do not do refunds. We cannot accept any responsibility for problems associated with playing discs on PCs, or consoles, or the unlikely event of Hardware being damaged while playing our films.
All new releases are due back the following evening by 8.30pm. All other films must be returned before 8.30pm on the third day after rental. Any late return will result in additional charges (£3 per day per new release, £1 per day for each of all other films). All late fees charges must be paid before any further rentals. The person or persons named on the account details are responsible for all fines relating to that account, regardless of who has incurred that fine.
We reserve the right to charge costs incurred in replacing any products damaged, lost or stolen while in the Memeber’s care. All films will be charged at the current retail replacement price.
Your card and password or code are strictly personal. Any other person willing to use them will have to be registered on your account. You will remain responsible for any persons authorised to use your account. Proof of I.D. may be requested should you not produce your card.
We reserve the right, from time to time, with or without notice to you, to change these Terms and Conditions at our sole discretion.
