Digital Microfilm Image Retrieval System
Web-based access to microfilm collections from any device.
A digital preservation platform for microfilm, IMAGEhost is The Crowley Company’s innovative software and image hosting solution, allowing users to easily access scanned microfilm rolls in their original format.
Using any internet-connected device, IMAGEhost is the affordable key to digital image accessibility from any location.
The doors never close. 24/7 microfilm availability.
It’s no longer necessary to be onsite to view microfilm images that are crucial for research, operations or other functions.
Using the industry-leading capture expertise of Mekel Technology or Crowley MACH Mini Film microfilm scanners, the IMAGEhost image retrieval system allows owners of images scanned with QuantumScan to view, print, save or send images from their workstation, home or on the road.
IMAGEhost adds efficiency for remote and onsite staff and increases patron value.
Cost-effective Options for Microfilm Image Hosting
IMAGEhost Image Retrieval System is offered as a premise-hosted software package that can integrate seamlessly into an existing IT infrastructure, maximizing the time-to-use solution.
Working from three key components – access to image repositories, an indexed database and the IMAGEhost operating program – IMAGEhost maximizes initial capture investment by offering secure public or password-protected full-image exposure to any network, client or patron base.
Two convenient scanning options:
- We Scan. Typically, microfilm rolls are scanned by Crowley’s Digitization Services division as a line item in the complete platform package.
- You Scan. A hybrid option exists for owners of Mekel and Crowley scanners whereby they can import their own scans directly into their pre-purchased IMAGEhost software.

*Collections must be scanned using Mekel Technology MACH-Series or Crowley MACH Mini microfilm scanners and software.
