Once this is done, a specific invoice can be located and viewed in a matter of minutes on a microfilm retriever. Documents from the other departments are processed, spliced onto magazines and returned to the department of origin for storage. A new film duplicator, recently installed in the depart ment, can photograph 100 feet of film in one minute so that now all existing microfilmed documents can be recopied and the original paper destroyed. By storing the two copies of a given document in different locations, the danger of destruction by fire is lessened. Also, the data can be stored in a much smaller area that if the paper documents had to be filed. In addition, documents from the Data Processing Depart ment are copied and stored in the Microfilm Department. In all, approximately 13 mil lion documents are on microfilm and stored in the department. PAGE COKER, camera operator, is shown editing a strip of microfilm.
