Microfilms -

The National Archives holds thousands of rolls of microfilms which may be photographed or photocopied.  The Archives will also make DVDs of whole rolls of microfilms for $65.00 per DVD, but these can take more than three months to obtain.

Photographing microfilm involves taking pictures of the images on a monitor.  This produces better results than using the crude photocopying machines attached to the microfilm readers. 

Final Product as a CD or DVD. Clients usually want the digitized documents as PDF files burned to a CD or DVD.  In those cases where the client needs the document rapidly, it is transferred over the Internet.

Rates:

I charge $290.00 per long day - which includes workup of the images in the evening after the work. All copying media, such as photocopy paper, CDs, DVDs and Mini-DVs are paid for by the client.
