Hi all,

As you know, NA Publishing has ceased operations and is no longer fulfilling orders. Duke has 30+ microfilm subscriptions that we have been getting from NA Publishing for many years, and we are now seeking another vendor for them. Apparently, NA Publishing owns the rights to the microfilm, having purchased them from ProQuest over 10 years ago, and neither ProQuest nor NewsBank plans on buying them back. So it sounds like we won't be able to get subscriptions to them on microfilm from anyone else, but I am hoping that someone on AcqNet might have suggestions for where else to look.

If we can't find these titles anywhere else in microfilm, then the next step will be to see if anyone is selling digitized versions. Any leads there would also be appreciated. Complete title list included below my signature.

Thanks, all!
