See the list below for a full accounting of Brighton Room resources. Two machines are available for viewing microfilm, one of which is digital, enabling users to save to flash drive, CD or e-mail. There is a time limit of two hours on either machine if others are waiting. Sign up for either machine at the reference/information desk. Access to the Brighton Room is during regular library hours.
