[Michlib-l] Charge for scanning?

[Julie Fikes]

At Brandon, we have a dedicated scanner for patron use.  They can scan as
much as they want, as often as they want.  There is no charge for this.
Many of our patrons use our scanner for saving old pictures in digital
format.  When I worked the desk I did not have patrons that were trying to
circumvent paying for faxes by scanning their documents and emailing them.  

 

Hope this helps,

Our library is finding that more and more patrons use our copy machine to
scan documents to email, and I'm beginning to wonder  if this is a way to
avoid fax charges.  Are other libraries are experiencing this and if so are
you charging for scans?  

Thanks for your feedback.
