Since the 1950's, the Wyoming State Archives has been microfilming records and
receiving records on microfilm. Archives staff have compiled the index
information in a Microfilm Database, allowing information about microfilmed
records to be available through the Internet.
Our microfilm collection includes records from state and local government
agencies, private collections, and a few federal documents. We have almost all
of the Wyoming newspapers on microfilm. Database searches can be conducted
using the agency name, county office, or record title or description. Most of
the microfilm is available for research, but if the research copy is with the
agency of record, you will need to contact that agency regarding access to the
film.
Microfilm may be viewed in the reference room of the Wyoming State Archives.
Reference room hours, address, and contact information are available at
http://wyoarchives.state.wy.us/Archives/Visit.aspx.
Paper copies of microfilm images can be printed.
If you can’t visit the State Archives, you can obtain newspaper microfilm
through interlibrary loan. Contact the reference desk at your local library.
Newspaper microfilm is available from the University of Wyoming and can be researched at your library. The Wyoming State
Archives does not participate in interlibrary loan. Rolls of microfilm may also
be purchased. Please check our fee schedule at
http://wyoarchives.state.wy.us/Archives/CopyFee.aspx for
current prices. Archives staff can conduct a limited amount of research for
you.
