Scanning microfiche?

If you have 1000 sheets to scan, there are services that do this
for around 6 cents / scanned frame on the fiche (prices vary on
resolution). I had some samples made from a few DEC fiche, and
300dpi effective is the MINIMUM scan that is usable.

Because of the thousands of sheets of fiche that I have, I'm
thinking of buying a Canon fiche viewer/scanner in early fall
(around 10K).

If you have DEC fiche that you're thinking of scanning, you may
want to check with me before spending any money on having yours
scanned.
