-
- Thanks all for your responses regarding scanning reserve collections.
-
- Two more questions:
-
- 1. What developments have there been in photocopying technology in the
- last 12 months?
-
- 2. What types of electronic storage/retrieval systems are people using
- instead of photocopiers to offer a similar service.
-
- This comes about because we are reviewing our photocopying service and
- considering new options for offering this service in different ways for
- parts of the collection. Photocopying technology is not developing in the
- way we would like so we want to know what other people are doing. Scanning
- the reserve collection is an option that has come up - its just at idea
- stage and will probably stay there for some time.
-
- For others interested, people have sent me the name of a company :
-
- JPS Marketing
- 284 Muse Drive
- El Dorado Hills
- CAl. 95630.
- Cost seems expensive and there are copyright problems both in the State
- and "down under".
-
- There is also a company called the "Memex Institute". Scott Seaman Head of
- Access Services University of Colorado, has details.
-
- Thanks for your assistance,
