But Why Should I Digitize Microfilm?
Microfilm usually boasts a shelf life of up to 50 years, but that isn’t always the case. Check in on your film and fiche. Do you notice any blemishes, vinegar smell, brittleness, stickiness or fungus? These older media types often decay even in environments with climate-control measures in place.
Digitizing these records before they fall to decay prolongs the life of your data in a way that really does last for years.
