Tina,
I'm pretty you don't have another screen (which comes with a special tool
for insertion and removal). A good pair of tweezers makes a suitable
substitute, though.
Take your lens off the camera. Looking through the lens mount you will
see a small tab at the top front inside the mirror box, near the prism.
Use the tweezers or a fingernail to pull this tab forward gently. The
screen frame and screen should drop down in front of the mirror. The
screen has a little tab that fits in a slot on the screen frame. On the
tab should be inscribed either a "13" for a 1-13 screen, or a "2-13".
These number can be a little hard to read (a loupe might help). Use the
tweezers to push the screen frame back up until it clicks. Needless to
say you want to do this in a fairly dust-free environment.
With an OM-2SP, yours is most likely a 1-13 screen.
