What Is Microfiche?
Libraries and other archives face an ongoing battle with storage; there is simply not enough space in any library to physically house all the materials a library might want to keep on hand. Items such as newspapers do not store for long periods of time, yet are of tremendous value to researchers. Microfiche offers a solution to both of these problems, and is a popular archival method.
  1. Function

    • Microfiche is a way of storing documents via photographic film. Documents are photographed and then stored at a small size, too small to be read by the naked eye. It provides long term storage as long as it is kept in a stable environment. it does not require special training to read or use, and the only equipment needed is a reader. A common tool of libraries, they are also used by many other archives.
