FICHE Books & Documents

A common topic for ENG101 papers has been academic performance and athletic participation. Students often find fiche books on this topic. These are usually thesis and dissertations related to Health, Physical Education and Recreation topics. Fiche books may be available online through the Oregon PDF in Health & Performance database. Users of this database can request that full-text access be added for titles that do not already have it. Use the "Request Product be Converted to PDF" link and fill out the form.

Also, many government documents that are available in microfiche are also available online. These are usually Congressional Hearings and they often have links in the library catalog and can be found in FDsys http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/.
