The Periodicals & Microforms Reading Room in Butler Library

Until further notice, the Microforms Reading Room in Butler Library will be available for in-person use on a very limited basis by appointment only to current Columbia affiliates (students, faculty and staff) whose individual research requires consulting microfilm or microfiche. Appointments will be scheduled on Mondays between 10am to 2pm or on Fridays between 1–5pm. Please see the Services page for more information.
For Periodicals Holdings, consult CLIO. (See section: How to search for serials).
For Microforms Holdings, consult both CLIO and the card catalog.
Both collections are non-circulating, but copiers and microform reader/printers and scanners are available for use.
Staff is present at all times to assist patrons. We are happy to help you with your questions and any technical assistance needed for the machines.
