Don't know exactly if these will fit your needs, but I have two
sort-of examples:

In the TV series "Supernatural", Sam Winchester (one of the two leads)
often spends time at a microfilm/fiche reader, researching the
particular case they're working on.

A long shot:  In the movie "Prelude to a Kiss", Alec Baldwin's
character works for a publisher who produces microfiche editions of
science journals, though I don't think you ever actually see anyone
using the microfiche.
