Dear Hannah,
A limited set of around 50 Criterion Collection films is available from both Alexander Street and Kanopy (both have the same title list) but the full collection of 380 titles is not available via any of the academic streaming suppliers in the UK.
Criterion have granted the sole UK distribution rights to Sony Pictures, and I believe distribution is only via physical media (DVD, Blu-Ray).

[External Email]
Hello
At University of Portsmouth Library I have been asked to source streaming access to the Criterion Collection films (https://www.criterion.com/library). I have been unable to find a service which allows streaming access to the full collection for the UK, does anyone know if this is available? We have access to a small number of titles on the Kanopy platform, but they do not include the extra content that the full Criterion Channel offers.
Thank you in advance for any help
Hannah
