[ILL-L] microfilm holdings, Billboard & Variety

[Karen.Dinkins at roanokeva.gov]

I have a patron who wants to view microfilm of Billboard from April and
July, 1950, and Daily Variety, August 11,1965.

Billboard (accn 1532948) is owned by 983 libraries; Variety (accn 1768958)
by 1,143.  Most of these libraries only hold a year or two; determining
which libraries might own (and be willing to lend) the films we need
appears to be a daunting task.

Is there an efficient (and quick) way to do this search?  Or, might one of
your libraries have one or both of these items that they could share?

Thanks for your help,
Karen
