	Microfilm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Microfilm machines may be available at libraries or record archives.
		Most microfilm media have a digital indexing system exposed on the edge of each image, but these data are not required to use the microfilm, but rather to support automated retrieval systems.
		Microfilm is not the most compact analog microform in wide use.

		Records on microfilm need as little as 2 percent of the space occupied by the same records on paper.
		Since microfilm does not deteriorate with age like paper, it is equally valuable for archival storage.
		Federal legislation clearly states that microfilmed business records are as admissible in evidence as the original documents, whether the originals are in existence or not.

	GETTING STARTED WITH MICROFILM
		Microfilm comes in a variety of formats, the most common of which are 16 or 35mm rolls, 16mm cartridges, microfilm jackets, microfiche, and aperture cards.
		The ideal storage temperature for microfilm is a constant 65 degrees; relative humidity should remain between 30% and 40%, with fluctuations in temperature and humidity not exceeding five degrees or five percent during a 24-hour period.
		Microfilm can be a cost-effective solution to the management and preservation of long-term and permanent records; however, a microfilming program must be carefully planned to ensure that the final product meets both national standards and the agency’s needs.

	Microfilm Standards (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The purpose of this section is to provide standards for microfilming of public records to assure that the film, photographing methods, processing, handling, and storage is in accordance with methods, procedures, and specifications designed to protect and preserve such records on microfilm.
		Microfilm stored in roll form shall be wound on cores or on reels of a type specified by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard MS34 Standard for dimensions for 100-foot Reels for Processed 16mm and 35mm Microfilm.
		Silver-gelatin microfilm shall not be stored with other types of film in the same room or in rooms connected by ventilating ducts because gases given off by the non-silver gelatin microfilm may damage or destroy the safety-film base.

	Microfilming Standards and Procedures - Texas State Library
		The original records may not be destroyed until the microfilm of the records is brought into compliance with this chapter and the rules adopted under it as evidenced by the submission of a new destruction authorization request.
		If the film duplication is done by a commercial microfilming service under contract with the local government or elected county officer, the cost of the copy may not exceed the cost paid by the local government or elected county officer for a copy under the contract.
		(i) All microfilm produced before the effective date of these sections is validated to the extent the microfilm was produced in the manner and according to the standards prescribed by prior law or the provisions of Local Government Code, Chapter 204, and the rules adopted under it.

	ACETATE MICROFILM (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Apart from microfilm, acetate was also the base for several other types of film media, including professional cinematic productions, amateur still film, x-rays, home movies, audio reel-to-reel, and audiocassettes.
		Keep in mind that microfilm stored offsite, such as camera negatives, may contain acetate, so be sure to check film in these repositories for signs of deterioration.
		For microfilm with a limited retention, this may be a cost-effective alternative.

	MICROFILM AND MICROFICHE
		It is also worth noting that, while digital data require use of a sophisticated retrieval system to access their treasures, microforms (i.e., microfilm and microfiche) can be read by the naked eye using only light and magnification.
		Unfortunately, high-contrast microfilm cannot ordinarily capture a broad spectrum of gray tones; thus, what is gained in text resolution is lost in reproducing halftone photographic images and illustrations.
		Microfilm reels should be individually boxed, with film held in the wound position by a preservation-quality paper tag secured with a string and button tie.
