The European Reading Room's collection of microforms includes not only long runs on microfilm of Baltic and Slavic-language newspapers, but also the unique items listed below. Many of the sets are biographical or bibliographical resources, while others are collections of primary documents or library catalogs.

For newspaper holdings search the Library of Congress online catalog or peruse the many European newspaper guides available on the European Reading Room website.

Full bibliographic information about each microform set from the Library of Congress online catalog may be obtained by clicking on the call number for a given item. The location field indicates whether the item is held in the European Reading Room microfiche cabinet (open shelf) or must be requested at the reference desk (request).

The Reading Room has two microfilm reader/scanners available for use with no appointments needed.
