Our KIC Bookedge scanner is located just to the left of the main doors as you enter the library. It allows anyone to do the following:
Scan/copy up to 12x17 inch pages of documents, photos, or books
Create digital and paper copies in full-color, grayscale, or black-and-white
Review and edit scans before exporting
Create PDF, JPEG, TIFF, PNG and editable text files
Use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to created searchable PDF files
Export via email, USB, print, or FAX
Create audio files from printed text
The easy-to-use touchscreen on the KIC Bookedge scanner guides users through the process, and staff assistance is available upon request. Learn more about the scanner from our guide. Traditional flatbed scanners are also available on the main floor next to public computers. A large-format flatbed scanner is available by appointment in the UMN Morris Archives.
