Micropublishing is the process of copying materials (e.g. documents, books, newspapers etc) onto high quality microfilm and distributing them to the end users such as libraries, research institutes, archives etc. Micropublishing still remains relevant today due to the longevity (500 years) and information preservation capabilities of microfilm. The very fact it is harder to disseminate the information on a microfilm as compared to digital, this ironic feature actually protects the copyrights of the publisher in terms of rapid duplication and free distribution with a click of a mouse.
