OSU Libraries has a trial of Proquest Digital Microfilm. Access to the trial requires a password, please contact your subject librarian to obtain the login information. The trial will run through October 31, 2010.
ProQuest Digital Microfilm provides scanned newspapers in microfilm, accessible around the clock via an intuitive, easy to use, online interface. Researchers can access full-page, cover-to-cover newspaper content from anywhere an internet connection is present. Digital Microfilm allows multiple, simultaneous users from subscribing libraries to scroll through the scanned microfilm as they would with standard microfilm equipment, or they can access the content using metadata: newspaper title, date, and page numbers. Digital Microfilm also allows users to print, crop, email, or save images for later reference. Additionally, Digital Microfilm offers two image resolutions: lower resolution for quick scrolling and navigation, and a higher resolution to make the most of charts and photographs.
