I thought the 1940 census would not be released on microfilm - only digital.  Claire, are you saying it is going to be filmed?

I have also found the answers to this question interesting, 
particularly those that mentioned microfilm. Are you still purchasing 
locally-relevant microfilm? Even if the related records are currently 
digitally available?

When the 1940 census is released in 2012 would you/your library want 
to purchase one or more microfilm rolls for geographic areas that 
fall within the scope of your collection?  Or will you rely on online 
digital access from whomever may provide it?
