Need source for news clips

One of my attorneys is teaching a class and would like some video/film
clips of some civil rights historical events. Specifically, he would
like some footage of the events in 1957 in Little Rock, where Gov. Faubus
blocked students from entering Central High School, etc, through the
President sending in troops.

I am not sure if there are any services or providers with this kind of
material. I am also wary af trying to locate materials that might have a
copyright restriction. I know the various news channels and news
departments have film libraries - is any of this available to rent or borrow?

Thanks in advance for any hints, directions, or insights!!
I confess I haven't looked anywhere because I'm clueless and stumped.
