RE: Scanner for the AIS Library


Hello In my opinion it would be less expensive to purchase a combination printer scanner I have one that I paid 99.00  it is a kodak and does a great job on pictures.  Spending 165.00 fora scanner seems expensive       Lynn Hess RVP  Region 12

I second Jim's motion:  "I move that the AIS Librarian be authorized to purchase an HP Scanjet 3970 or equivalent scanner for use in the AIS Library."

  In my opinion such a  purchase would/could come out of either the AIS Library restricted funds -- or out of the Foundation's Library Fund Account.  The Foundation has, in the past, been the source of funds for the purchase of important library equipment.
It would seem to me that whatever the source -- there should be funds in the AIS Library restricted accounts to accommodate the purchase of an important library tool -- a scanner.

Hi Everyone:

Our Librarian, Tracy Plotner has been doing a great job researching info. for the 50th Anniversary of The Siberian Irises. She has found some great stuff we may like to use but a zerox copy wouldn't be good enough for publication. Do you all know the library doesn't have a scanner? Could anyone authorize the purchase of one - I'm sure it wouldn't cost more than $150.00.

All,
 
Judy asked me to post this for her.  I fully endorse this.  I use the Library a lot and Tracy is always making copies for me.  Scans of some items would be most helpful.  At a minimum Tracy should have access to a HP Scanjet 3970 or equivalent.  Can this come out of Library endowment funds or does it have to come out of general unrestricted operating funds?
 
If it must come out of the unrestricted operating funds then:  I move that the AIS Librarian be authorized to purchase an HP Scanjet 3970 or equivalent scanner for use in the AIS Library.
