The responsibility of microfilming currently published newspapers and the fulfillment of their microfilm subscriptions has been taken over by Heritage Microfilm, Inc. For information regarding these newspaper titles please contact Marilyn Gill: 1-888-870-0484, or by email: mgill@heritagemicrofilm.com. Heritage Microfilm can be located on the internet at: www.heritagemicrofilm.com. SMI's status as a sub-contractor to other microfilm service bureaus for the microfilming of newspapers and newspaper microfilm digitization will not be affected by this transition. SMI is accredited by Kodak as a Certified Document Conversion Center for 16mm, 35mm and 105mm microfilm and for digitization of microfilm to electronic images. Our leading-edge microfilm to digital conversion technologies feature dynamic, full-text word searches of PDF images. SMI also offers software solutions for accessing and workflowing the digital images of newspapers, paper documents, and artifacts (paintings, statues, murals, maps and other objects). State-of-the-art document retention solutions pioneered by SMI facilitate the capture, storage and retrieval of electronic files. Disparate file formats such as .doc, .pdf, .eml, .jpg, etc., can be transmitted via secure FTP, or by VPN, to SMI's facilities for capture on 16mm microfilm. SMI's Oral History service bureau can transcribe audio and VHS video tapes into printed, indexed and concordance referenced manuscripts. Printed manuscripts can then be bound, or the transcribed electronic files can be converted into word-searchable digitized compositions.
