Along the same lines, we live in a suburb of Denver, with a good county
library system. I requested an ILL of microfilm copies of The National
Tribune, a Civil War veterans' newspaper.
Our library runs their requests through the ILL department of the Denver
Public Library. After a few weeks, I was told they could not locate anyone
willing to ILL the reels.
Before I could investigate further, I went down to the Denver PL on another
errand. Looking through their cabinets of microfilmed newspapers for the one
I needed, I suddenly saw several drawers labeled.....
The National Tribune! :>)
Take care,
Bob

Credit for that discarded microfilm reader lays right at the feet of the
N.Y.State
Library Policy makers who changed the N.Y.Library STANDARDS C 1999 from
the requirements that all libraries (chartered by the N.Y. State regents )
have
Microfilm Readers to read that all libraries are required to have FAX
machines
