Microforms and Nonprint Collection

Viewing, Printing, and Scanning Microforms

Viewing and Printing

There are a number of machines called Reader-Printers nestled among the microform storage cabinets on the first floor. Most of these machines allow both viewing and printing of images on both microfiche and microfilm. Instructions on loading the film or fiche and on printing are posted at each machine.

Printing may be paid for either by using the coin slot attached to the reader-printer or by use of a Library Vendacard.

Scanning

There are two workstations which will allow you to scan microform images onto a Zip disk or USB storage device instead of printing them out on paper. Staff from the service desk will be glad to assist you in using this equipment.
