The How, Why and What of Microfiche Conversion

By
Since the mid-1800’s, Microfilm and Microfiche have been a reliable way to create a hard copy file for storage and saving documents. In fact, over the years, they were essential to efficient information management. But with advances in technology, microfilm and microfiche have become obsolete. It is important to bring your office into 2018 with microfiche scanning from Resource Data Management. It is essential to your business and for all companies and government organizations to invest in microfilm and microfiche conversion. As experts in microfiche conversion for New Jersey and the entire Tri-State area of New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, we’ve put together a rundown of the ‘what, how, why’ of microfiche conversion.

What. In many instances, old rolls of microfiche are not easily accessible and cannot be shared between various people within the organization. In addition, as time passes, the equipment, known as a Microfilm or Microfiche Reader, used to search for data on these rolls is damaged or unavailable, making access to the information nearly impossible. Microfiche conversion allows your employees to not only access documents more easily, but in some cases; it allows them to access them for the first time.

How. RDM will convert your rolls of Microfilm and Microfiche jackets to images on CD, DVD, or online. We will index the Film or Fiche with keywords or index values, to help users to quickly locate and access the data for which they are looking. As the demand for immediate, shared access to information increases, RDM offers clients an easy method of changing this information to TIF or PDF images.

Why. Many employees these days are no longer trained or able to use old, antiquated machinery and are unfamiliar with microfiche in general. In short, when you provide immediate access to information that was once stored on Microfilm or Microfiche, your organization will be better equipped to address the needs of your end-user. Information can be searched and retrieved in seconds, without needing any specialized equipment. Additionally, data is more readily availability to help with audit and compliance requirements, such as the Freedom of Information Act.

So, welcome 2018 and look into microfiche conversion for your New Jersey business. At Resource Data Management, it is our goal to help you have the most efficient and effective office possible. We serve not only New Jersey but the entire surrounding Tri-State area. If you have questions about microfiche conversion for your business, please give us a call at 215-953-5175 or Contact Us.
