Just as a re-introduction as it has been a while since I have posted to the list, I am a Public Records Archivist at the Connecticut State Library but my main role is as a records analyst. I have held the position for the past six years.  The Office of the Public Records Administrator has authority over the 57 state agencies of the executive branch, all 169 municipalities and a number of quasi-public agencies.  One of the best parts of my job is preaching the gospel of proper records management and have I have used to list members' wit and witticisms to spice up my presentations.

We are in the process of developing standards for the preservation and authentication of electronic records for state and municipal agencies.  I have been asked to find out if any institutions or public agencies create microfilm from born digital records as a preservation strategy.  I have searched the web and the listserv archives but have only found references to microfilm being produced from scanned images of documents.  I would be interested in hearing from anyone utilizing microfilm in this manner.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.
