Abstract: The microfilm storage and retrieval (MegaSAR-420) system of the present invention puts microfilm images on line in a document imaging system. A MegaSAR-420 could be connected to a PC LAN base document imaging system with specialized software. A remote user then has the ability to retrieve images of the stored microfilm. The MegaSAR-420 doubles the capacity of devices in the prior art, specifically including at least twenty-eight spoked hub units and using cartridges having greater storage capacity.
