There is one scanner available for public use in the Portland State Library Research Center (second floor of Millar Library); therefore scanning should be limited to 30 minutes if others are waiting. The scanner is available on a "first come first served" basis with educational or course related work having priority over personal use. The station is connected to the Portland State network (for e-mailing and saving to Portland State home directories).
- Canon CanoScan 8800F Flatbed Scanner - available upon requestby asking at the Reference Desk. The scanner offers 4800 dpi high resolution,and a legal-size scan area of 8.5" x 14." An instruction manual in PDF format is available.
Please note that Library staff can only offer minimal assistance with the software on the scanning station. The user is responsible for observing all copyright laws when scanning copyrighted materials. Use of the scanner must be consistent with US Copyright Law (Title 17, United States Code), state and federal law, Portland State University's Acceptable Use Policy, and other policies of the library and university.
Another scanning station is located in the Portland State Computer Lab on the first floor of the Library, but is supported by the Portland State Office of Information Technology (OIT).
