I am trying to figure out if/how to "insure" them-I saw that FedEx does not offer insurance, but UPS offers liability coverage up to $50,000 (which would cost $400). I'm not sure what to do because if these are lost in shipment, even $50,000 won't replace them-however, the thought of just sending them out there with no coverage doesn't sound appealing, either. Does anyone have any suggestions for shipping these to best prevent loss of any records?

You could no doubt insure the microfilm for the value of its information
contents. You'd have to find an insurance broker who handles such
things, and the premium might be steep, but it can be done. Virtually
anything can be insured against loss for the right premium, and there
are companies that specialize in such things. They insure rocket
launches, athletes' knees, actresses' legs, bazillion-to-one sports
bets, and pretty much whatever else might be at risk of loss or damage.
