I am sending this message to all of the lists I am on, because it is a tip that has helped me to be able read some of the microfilm with more ease. And we all know that reading them can be difficult. The tip is just to use a piece (I use two, to cover the whole reading area) of Goldenrod colored paper. Goldenrod, in case you don't know is a more orangey (sp?) color than a manilla envelope. I hope this is an adiquate description of the color. Nancy

Nancy, I'm afraid I don't quite follow what you mean, what am I going to cover? The reader itself?, under the lens? Around the screen? I'm sorry, I'm not to familiar with them anyway, so I'm really puzzled. Please spell it out for us beginners. >>The tip is just to use a piece (I use two, to cover the whole reading area) of Goldenrod colored paper. << Thanks, Myrna
