Facsimile Transmission of Microforms.

Abstract

Libraries and technical information centers are storing increasingly large amounts of information in microform. In the process, they have generated a tremendous problem in delivering documents to the end user. When needed research documents are available in microform, no rapid transmission of the information contained in them is possible. Mailing microforms is too slow a method to meet information needs of today's researcher. Some form of telefacsimile transmission of microform is needed. This study is designed to describe the current status of the technology, and to recommend directions for future research and development.
