Technical Note - Part 7
Our microfilm publications have been prepared and produced in accordance with recommended and established guide-lines for the production of microform of superior quality. These conform to the recommendations of the standard guides to good microforming and micropublishing practice.
Attention should be drawn to the nature of the original material in Part 7 of the collection. The material consists of ephemeral, manuscript and rare printed materials relating to the First World War. Most of the material is in very good condition. A few typescript, manuscript and printed items contain some faintly legible text written with a variety of inks, pens or pencils. A few items are stained or discoloured at the edges, or comprise material on very thin paper, which is so thin that there is show through that renders the original document difficult to read.
These original characteristics present difficulties of image and contrast which stringent tests and camera alterations cannot entirely overcome. Every effort has been made to minimise these difficulties.
An A4 identification target is filmed at the front of each new item giving the shelmark details of that item. A contents of reels listing has been added at the front of every new reel of film.
The staff of the Photographic Services Department, Cambridge University Library have exercised the most responsible care in the filming of this unique collection and this microfilm publication meets the standards established by the Association for Information and Image Management (AIIM), the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and all equivalent European Standards.
