Sorry, this was a too quick reply all.  Meant for staff in our library.  My \
apologies.

Could our printer be an additional scanner?

Catherine,
That is a great idea, at the moment we don't have the problem of patron using the \
scanner for long periods of time but your idea is something that I would keep in mind \
for future use. Our copier/scanner/printer is used for scanning and we don't charge \
for the service.

Thanks,

Terry Mendoza

We have a small home style Epson scanner hooked up to a computer and we do not charge \
patrons to use this scanner. If the computer is in use they will have to wait their \
turn to use it. Our copier/scanner has this function but because it is hooked up to \
our network we do not allow patrons to plug USBs in to our copier. Our copier is in \
an area that can be monitored by circ staff.

We have some patrons who have discovered that they can scan to a USB device for free \
on our public printer/copier (Toshiba). Said patrons are now spending inordinate \
amounts of time doing this and are tying up the copier so that no one else can use \
it. Some staff are interested in investigating how we might charge for scanning. We \
will discuss it with our vendor, of course, but just wondering if/how some of you are \
charging for scanning?

Thanks.
