Microfilm (reels) and microfiche (flat sheets) are "micro-reproductions" of documents for archival storage, reading, and printing. These formats are located on Floor 2 of the Ort Library. The reference and media staff can help you with the special equipment needed to view and print microfilm and microfiche. Besides what is listed below, there are several historical newspapers in the library microfilm collection, some going back to the 1700's.
