It is great. Our library here in Oswego has the local Pall Times on microfilm with the copy function so you can make a copy of the article. It does get to you after an hour of looking at the screen. The Syracuse Library has fiche readers in their great genealogy section. If you do use these fiche readers I recommend you bring a sheet of transparent yellow cellophane to put over the reader so as to help you from getting a headache. It really works. Good hunting.
