The Microforms Sets Guide is a database containing descriptions of over 100
microfilm sets held by the Microform and Newspapers Collections, University
of Washington Libraries. The purpose of this project is to provide better
access to otherwise often obscure holdings. The database is a work in progress
and more sets will be added. The word "set" is defined broadly for the purposes
of this project, meaning that any group of materials published on microform
by a university or commercial publisher, scholarly society, library or archives
may be included. Excluded are individual newspaper and periodical titles,
and separate works issued individually. Many government document collections
have been included, particularly sets that were acquired many years ago and
may lack adequate electronic bibliographic control.
