One thing is to check what form the periodical comes in electronically. PDF is superior to microforms but plain text doesn't work for ones where images are important.

Subject: [SERIALST] Microfilm Renewals

Hello everyone!

Our library is looking at cutting back our microfilm budget and I was wondering if anyone can share information regarding this.  We're mainly looking at criteria that we can use while evaluating what microfilm titles to cut.

Thanks!

Michelle
