We have Canon scanners and copiers. They are very user friendly and fast. We also use three ST Imaging scanners for high quality digital scans, direct from film. The image is unequaled because it is not reflective, lighting is evenly played across the image, and the software allows editing. The Imager also does microfiche and microcard. It is slower than the Canon because it scans at 2700 dpi from across the film surface. The image displays on a computer monitor. We use 23 inch flat screens. Users like the large display surface. A high resolution digital camera sends the image to the computer screen.

List:
Is there a single publisher/vendor who is selling the entire set of the/ Territorial Papers of the United States/, ed. by Clarence E. Carter?
I've only seen partial sets in the used book realm.
Thanks,

Good question about verifying ownership. There is no real way to do this on our end. If someone recognizes a document to fall under this circumstance, they would need to let us know, we would remove the documents from the database and contact the "owner" and let them know to try to verify at that point whether or not it was stolen. We also make a point to say that the person must own the document they are making the image of...for obvious reasons - wouldn't want a person using images of his neighbors collection without consent. Again, others would have to recognize this on the site and inform us so that we can remove them. It would be near impossible for us to track the origin of each document archived. Thanks,
Ryan

This is my first posting, so here goes. Our library has a generous donor who has offered to purchase all of the equipment we need for our new genealogy room, including fiche/film scanners, printers, copiers, cabinets....if you had this situation, what would be the first top of
the line vendors/choices? Thanks for the help and guidance, Cheri

Wow, Christmas is coming early for your library!! Wish I had your "problem".
First off I would get the latest and greatest Canon Microfilm Scanner/printers for your microfilm. We have 4 that are a few years old but are wonderful and practically maintenance free! They are viewers and printers all in one machine. Ours has an attachment for microfiche reading.
Have fun with this and I hope you get lots of advice.

They are called planetary scanners and they start at about $20k.

The Territorial Papers of the United States were published by the
National Archives / GPO / etc. in the 1930s-1970s, and would be
considered "out of print" by GPO and NARA.
However, there is a private publisher that appears to have reprinted
the set: follow this link to the specific page on the W. S. Hein
website <http://www.wshein.com/Catalog/Product.aspx?sku=5994>

Cheri--
Our latest wonderful toy is a Canon Microfilm Scanner 350, which not only
allows you to view and copy microfilm, but also to turn it into TIFF or
PDF files. (This has been a wonderful boon because we answer a lot of
email requests and we can now email someone an obituary in about 3
minutes.) You have to pair it with a PC because it's driven by a
software package called Capture Perfect. Also, the printer is a separate
piece of equipment. Our version isn't dual carriage (that is, it only
does film and not fiche), but we didn't need one and it's possibly
available; check with your Canon dealer.
It's not the easiest thing in the world to operate, but once you learn
how to work it its versatility is wonderful. I've never used a microfilm
copier which makes better copies because the software control allows you
to modify or filter out dark background.
I have no idea how much it costs because I didn't handle the purchase,
but I know it's expensive. I would, however, enthusiastically recommend
it, but only if you have someone who's fairly adept at teaching
themselves machinery and software or if your supplier also supplies a
good trainer.
