Bibliographies Indexes Interlibrary Loans Library Cooperation Library Material Selection Library Materials Microforms Preservation Public Libraries Union Catalogs Some practical information about microforms is provided for librarians, with specific help for those in Kentucky.

Availability of microforms through cooperative projects and interlibrary loan is discussed with particular reference to the Kentucky Cooperative Library Information Project (KENCLIP) and its union list of periodicals produced in computer output microfilm (COM) format.
