Q. What is microfilm/microfiche?

Microfilm and microfiche are micro-reproductions of materials such as journals, newspapers, or other documents. Microfilm and microfiche must be read using a microfilm reader. Refer to our Microforms Guide to determine how to access microfiche/film items. There is a microfilm/fiche reader with instructions located behind the Service Desk on the first floor of the Taylor Family Digital Library.
