Scanners

The Zeta Book Scanner's easy-to-use touchscreen interface allows patrons to quickly and easily convert books, magazines, loose pages, and other documents into a variety of digital formats. Patrons may scan in color, grayscale, or black and white. Once finished scanning, patrons may save their digital media to a flash drive, print directly to the library's main Circulation Desk, or send the scans directly by email.

Many students use the Zeta to scan chapters from a book on reserve for their class or notes from a classmate.
