University surplus? Even some place that has a large records capacity in microfilm might have surplus? Neighboring states?

APL external email warning: Verify sender [email protected] before clicking links or attachments We have a faculty member from our History department who is looking to purchase a microfilm reader for use in his office. He has a budget of $4,000. The closest we've found is a Micro-Image Capture 9.[1] But closer reading revealed that the base model is microfiche only, and adding the ability to handle microfilm adds $1800 to the price and pushes it well out of budget. Any suggestions?
