We also have a large format plotter which we charge to both UT
affiliates and the general public.  We also have a large format scanner
which we is only open to the UT community.  Both of these are only
operated by our Map Services staff.  We also have a 11x17 scanner that
is open to UT affiliates for no charge.  In the future, we hope to have
free scanning for both the UT and general public with the purchase of
some new equipment.  We are looking at getting a new B&W scanner/copier
with free scanning to the public, and a newer color scanner for UT
affiliates.

We have both a large-format scanner & plotter but they are explicitly
NOT
self-service.  Although they are not particularly difficult to use they
are
both quite easily damaged by someone who doesn't know what they're doing
&
in our current budget situation would be difficult if not impossible to
replace either one.  Because they're not self-service we for both print
&
digital output - we also have a self-service 11 x 17 flatbed scanner for
people who don't want to pay for scanning.

Greetings all,

A question for those of you who have plotters in or near your map
collections or within your library.

How many of your libraries have a plotter accessible to patrons in a
public area? Where is it located and is it a self-serve or mediated
service? In other words how many of you have plotters that are
self-serve to patrons?

I would be very interested in knowing what's happening in your
environments.

Thanks in advance
