I think you will find VERY FEW that will accommodate the large DIN size slides.
Readers are few and far between. IN this country VW, Porsche- Audi and BMW were likely the only ones used the big size. Maybe Daimler -Benz. They make it very hard to obtain their parts books.
These appear to be 25 by 25= 625 pages per slide Many are not full.

Any academic library will have a microfiche reader that can either go to digital directly or go to paper first and then be scanned to digital. Maybe paying someone to do it is a trivial amount, but if not I imagine someone in the discussion is in a town with an academic library. If not, I'd be glad to volunteer to do the grunt work.

Can you give me any more info on the slides? Ie the type/size.

I don’t really know anything about microfiche – but vaguely recall using it at the library as a kid ;)

This site has some pricing info - http://www.microfilmworld.com/microfilmscanningandimagingservices.aspx
I would think there is not a large difference in pricing between vendors. If I understand it correctly, it look slike $.08/slide for microfiche to 200 dpi. I think for line drawings we would want 300 DPI, so some extra charges. If you can give me the details of the fiche, than I can source getting them scanned – and pricing.

What are on your microfiches slides?

Thanks,

Actually, I think I have 800+ microfiche slides. If someone wanted to copy them, I can lend them. I intend to give them to Everett Barnes so he can get them on line.
I've got the service ones, too. don't know if there is any type 2 stuff on them. They are on US size slides.
