How do I read microform?

Answer

You will need a mircoform reader to read film or fiche.  The microform reader is located on the first floor of the library next to the Bloomberg terminals near rooms 128 and will allow you to view/save/print film/fiche.  Instructions to use the machine are next to it.

If you have any trouble using the machine, ask for help at the Research Help or Circulation desks.

 

Microform Reader next to the Bloomberg Terminals. A microform reder looks like a computer screen with a machine next to it that has spools and a glass plate to either read film or a form.
