I am on the fence about the 1940.  On the one hand I would like to get the microfilm and believe we should have it in the collection.  On the other hand it will be a large expense and almost no one has been using the 1930 census on microfilm the last few years.  The idea of spending that much of my budget on something that in all likelyhood isn't going to be used isn't very appealing especially at the prices NARA is charging these days.

I will and will continue to purchase microfilm that will be of use.
