The client demands of this urban public library are growing exponentially. How to keep up and meet the demand was a big challenge.

The Organization: A large US City public library.

The Problem: This library’s clients are more knowledgeable than ever and keeping up with meeting their needs is crucial. Local clients and clients from around the world both call and walk in to get information stored on microfilm. The microfilm cannot be removed from the library, so how do you get this information out other than to print and mail it?

The Solution: We provided the library with a Microform Reader Printer, the MS6000 MKII. This unit scans to print as well as connects to a PC. So at the press of a button a client as far away as Germany can now have genealogy information sent to them for electronic distribution on wesites or sent as an email attachment.

The Benefits: Clients are now getting information lightning fast, whether it’s from around the world or walking into the local library and downloading the information to a USB drive. The ability to have the information that you need, the way you want it is priceless.
