Sorry for the delay. It got lost in the excitement of the new computer!

Magnetic microfilm drawer stops are available from University Microfilms.
(see end of current UMI Serials In Microform Catalog).  I think UMI calls
them "magnetic compressors" and, if I recall correctly, the cost is around
$7.00.  If you don't have a UMI catalog, their toll free number is 800
521-0600.   We use them in all of our cabinets, and they are definitely
worth the cost.

Hope this helps.
