Good heavens--under $5!! When we borrow the microfilms they're $3.75 each, $3.75 to renew, and another $3.75 to get them on indefinite loan. After I did that for a number of microfilms, I found out that the last director of our local FHC decided to send *all* the microfilms back to Salt Lake City, "indefinite loan" or not! So the $10 I paid for each microfilm (running into the dozens, easily), I might have to pay again in the future. Still cheaper than going to Italy though! --Gina "Frank F." wrote: > As we've already learned in another post re this thread, we do not buy > the microfilm, we rent it.
