[OPLINLIST] Scanning for the Public

[Mohamed Ragheb]

We have a scanner for public use, I have step by step instructions of how to
use it and the public have no problem follow those instructions "most of the
time". Also they can use the OCR software to scan documents if they wish
following different instructions. It's free to use, we don't charge for it.

Thanks

Good afternoon.

Are there any libraries that offer scanning services to the public?  If
you offer this service, do you have a policy?  Do you charge?  What are
the pros/cons of offering this service?

We will do the scanning and either send the scan directly to the patron's
email address or save the file to a public flash drive that can be used on
the public computers.

Thank you in advance for any assistance!
