Microforms are greatly reduced photographs of newspapers, journals, books, magazines, government documents and miscellaneous unpublished research. With the appropriate equipment, the reduced text can be enlarged for reading. The types of microform in the collection include microfilm, micro card, microprint, microfiche, and ultra fiche.

The microform collections at SBU exceed the size of the Library's book collections in terms of volumes and occupy nearly 4 million rolls of film. The materials include selected newspapers (current and past, foreign and domestic), magazines and journals, U.S., U.N., and foreign government publications, U.S. and foreign census materials, manuscripts, dissertations, archival materials, anthropological studies, educational research reports and large collections of older American and European books and plays.
