How to find primary sources on microfilm in the library

UVM Libraries owns many collections of primary sources on microfilm, including personal narratives from the civil war, women's writings, photographs of the 1930s depression, confidential documents from the State Department, testimony of the Indian Claims Commission, and papers of the NAACP.

Ask a reference librarian to show you the guides to microfilms (shelved at the beginning of the reference stacks) and browse to see what’s relevant to your topic.
