Digital ReeL Overview 

Digital ReeL is an affordable, practical Nashville, Tennessee digital microfilm solution that is ideal for infrequently accessed physical microfilm and microfiche archives.

BMI’s digital microfilm solution begins with the conversion of your physical microfilm rolls to digital microfilm rolls at our Northern California (Silicon Valley) facility. If your records must stay on-site in the Nashville area, we can digitally scan your microfilm at your facility. Rather than converting and indexing individual images on the microfilm roll, our digital microfilm process creates a virtual replica of each of your microfilm rolls. Unlike other microfilm conversion services, we lose no records during the digital microfilm process because the entire microfilm roll is converted.

Digital ReeL customers include federal government agencies, state and local government and private companies. Nashville recorders, court clerks, law offices, educational institutions, insurance companies and more can trust their records to the Digital ReeL digital microfilm solution.

Indexing and Search

The Digital ReeL digital microfilm solution includes a web application that replicates the look and feel of a reader printer and your existing microfilm retrieval indexing logic. Your researchers will avoid the hassles of physical microfilm by simply retrieving digital microfilm rolls from a computer and then locating the digital records of interest using the same indexing schema that you are currently using with your physical archive. Book and page, roll and frame and case number are example indexing methodologies supported by Digital ReeL. Even multiple indexing methodologies can be accommodated. Digital ReeL also includes full-text searching capabilities so that users can locate records using words, phrases and numbers.

Cloud & On Premise Options

BMI completes the New York digital microfilm service with both the on premise and cloud option. The difference between the two options is how you desire your digital microfilm rolls and the Digital ReeL viewer application managed from an IT perspective. BMI will ship your digital images and the Digital ReeL application to your IT department for the on premise solution. The cloud option is perfect for customers who don’t want the hassle of IT. BMI will digitally scan your microfilm and host your digital microfilm rolls from our secure data center. Researchers access their images from the Digital ReeL web interface over the Internet.

Digital ReeL is the Practical Solution for Your Legacy Records 

• Affordable: Digital ReeL is normally priced per microfiche sheet with indexing at the microfiche title level. With this process, you can easily replicate your existing search methods and save money by skipping the expensive document-level indexing step.
• Microfiche Scanning Accuracy: We digitally scan the entire microfiche sheet, preserving your microfiche exactly as they appear physically. No images missed, no data lost.

Why invest in outdated physical microfiche reader/printers when you can improve record retrieval and usability by scanning the microfiche? If you’re frustrated with your microfiche reader/printer but think it would cost too much to digitally scan your records, we encourage you to look at Digital ReeL – the affordable and easy-to-use microfiche and microfilm reader/printer replacement solution.
