We have moved all the microfilm and microfiche collections to the Ivy Stacks. Virgo is updated to indicate the materials are in Ivy for most titles. We are working to complete the record updates for the remainder of titles. There are a couple of types of fiche and film records that required special Virgo records.
Large Microfiche/film Sets
For large sets of microfiche or microfilm there is a “cover record” for the set in Virgo. Records for the individual titles within the large set will point to the cover record for retrieval from Ivy.
An example of such a large set is the Papers the NAACP. The “cover record” for the entire set has all the microfilm reels linked to it. Records for individual titles within the set (like NAACP Administrative Files) link back to the cover record. The Related Resources link in the individual title records links back to the cover record. You should be able to request the reels for the individual title directly from its record or from the cover record.
A few examples of other large sets with “cover records” and individual title records include:
Records of Ante-Bellum Southern Plantations From the Revolution Through the Civil War - Micfilm 1705
History of Women - Micfilm 2159
Gothic Fiction - Micfilm 7381
Travels in the West and Southwest - Micfich 22
"Miscellaneous" Cover Records
In addition to large sets with individual title records for the components within the set, we created some generic "cover records" for microfiche where many titles had to be grouped together in one Ivy storage box. Many U.S. government produced microfiche are grouped together on a generic record for the entire agency. These records include:
For these it's necessary to find the call number of the set or microfiche you want, follow the Related Resources link to the generic cover record, and scan down until you see the call number group which includes the one your want.
