	In 1930 he joined Edwards Brothers,Inc., a printing and publishing firm in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and became Vice-President.		In 1930 he joined Edwards Brothers,Inc., a printing and publishing firm in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and became Vice-President. In 1931 he went to England to photograph early printed books. In 1935 he planned to re-publish on microfilm the 26,000 titles in the ''Short title catalogue of books published in England, Scotland & Ireland... 1475-1964''. He was influenced by [[Robert C. Binkley]] to become more expert.

	~~He left~~ Edwards Brothers to ~~found [[University Microfilms Inc.]]~~, in 1938~~. With~~ [[University ~~Microfilm~~ Inc.]]~~, Power photographed all British books printed before 1640 with a microfilm camera he invented~~ and sold positive film copies to libraries wishing to have access to ~~these~~ rare, often unique, books. With the ability to generate print copies on paper the company helped to make out-of-print books available.		Edwards Brothers preferred to remain with conventional printing, so Power to concentrate on microfilms in 1938 and founded [[University Microfilms Inc.]]. He then undertook numerous ambitious microfilming projects and sold sold positive film copies to libraries wishing to have access to rare, often unique, books. With the ability to generate print copies on paper the company helped to make out-of-print books available.

	Between 1939 and 1945, Power advised a Rockefeller funded project to microfilm important British manuscripts at Oxford and Cambridge. Working from London, he set in motion a project that photographed countless manuscripts in British collections, saving them from destruction in the Blitz. Power was asked by the Office of the US Coordinator of Information to help film ~~enemy~~ documents ~~obtained~~ by ~~the British~~ so that they could be shipped to the US ~~during World War II~~. He became a microfilm expert with the [[Office of Strategic Services]] (OSS)~~. He also reproduced and sent to America for intelligence analysis various newspapers, books, periodicals, and Allied agents acquired in occupied Europe~~.

Power was asked by the Office of the US Coordinator of Information to help film newspapers, books, periodicals, and other documents acquired by Allied agents in occupied Europe so that they could be shipped to the US for intelligence analysis. He became a microfilm expert with the [[Office of Strategic Services]] (OSS).

	In May 1942, Power brought all of the different Allied agencies interested in obtaining enemy publications together and established the Executive Committee of the Aslib Microfilm Service (AMS).
