| The Serials Microfilm Project makes available to libraries and scholars the | ||
| Chicano Studies Serials Collection, the most extensive collection of Chicano and | ||
| Chicano/Latino-related serials in the United States. Initiated in 1973 in conjunction | ||
| with Bay Microfilms, Inc. (now BMI Imaging, Inc.), the Serials Microfilm Project | ||
| to date has filmed hundreds of titles (almost 700 rolls of film) and continues to | ||
| expand its catalog. The earliest newspaper dates from 1855. Because of the rich | ||
| cultural history of people of Latin American descent in the United States, the | ||
| project has gathered and filmed a wide array of titles from all aspects of | ||
| Chicano and Latino experience. | ||
