Microfilm Digitization Project
We are looking to digitize our microfilm collection to allow easier access to the historic newspapers that we own. We have four newspapers: The Review, The Argus, The Pleasant Plains Press, and The Ashland Sentinel. We want to convert our microfilm to digital files that can be searched, saved and made easier to use. It costs $175 per reel to have it digitized.
