For microformats on the 2nd floor of Paterno, Microforms staff will typically scan up to 50 pages.   Penn State students, faculty, and staff should find the item in the library catalog and use the "request a scan" link found in the records for microformats housed on 2 Paterno.  For example, https://catalog.libraries.psu.edu/catalog/2833013

Community users should be directed to their local library to initiate an Interlibrary Loan request for a scan. (the same roughly 50 page limit applies)

Patrons needing more than 50 pages can access the microforms in person on 2 Paterno.  If a visit is not an option, we will lend reels to other PSU campuses and other libraries.  Penn State users can take advantage of remote access options to view microformat materials from any location.  See this FAQ for more on remote access
