Preservation Imaging - General Information

The Southern Regional Library Facility's Preservation Imaging unit provides preservation level microfilming production and digitization services for libraries and individuals. 

SRLF's Preservation Imaging specializes in reproducing deteriorated textual materials and in preserving their intellectual content for future use. Information in danger of loss because it is printed on poor quality paper can be reproduced on microfilm, thus preserving content and allowing for continued access.

SRLF's Preservation Imaging performs original filming, and film to film duplication. SRLF adheres to the RLG Preservation Microfilming Guidelines, which is analagous to a national preservation standard.

SRLF's Preservation Imaging unit also provides scanning services from print originals, microfilm, microfiche, and other photgraphic images.  Scanning from print originals is available in archival-quality TIFF format, as well as in smaller file formats that are captured at lower resolution settings.
