Some good links provided here but I must say that in general, film libraries seem to be hopeless at providing details of what they have on 16mm. Often, you can search for titles but when the details come up, there's no indication of whether the film is available on 16mm.
Filmbank in the UK have a large 16mm library, even though they don't add to it, but if you look at their website, although some (not all) of their 16mm titles show up as available on 16mm, you would have great difficulty finding ANY indications elsewhere on the site that 16mm exists! Similarly, the BFI has a substantial 16mm library, but I defy anyone to actually obtain or see a list of exactly what's in it!
If anyone doing similar research finds a library that actually seems to promote the use of 16mm, please say so as they deserve further publicity.
