Even in this digital age, many libraries and small archives often use microfilm and microfiche to display important information. There are many types of devices for reading these media, and many ways to use and, unfortunately, misuse these technologies. Librarians and archivists are well-aware of the problems and, if they haven't done so already, are almost certainly considering digitization with its obvious advantages. Yet, there are many pitfalls. Digitizing Microfilm and Microfiche is intended for anyone who has to deal with the economics and technologies of a digitization project. The author, Ronald J. Leach, recently retired from a long-time career as a Computer Science professor, and has had considerable experience with multiple digitization projects for numerous organizations with a variety of systems. He had also worked on microfilm quality assessment for a government agency.
