Digitizing Equipment
Logan Utah FamilySearch Center Scanning Area
The Logan FamilySearch Center provides multiple pieces of equipment to help you preserve your family documents, pictures, and videos. (See descriptions below.)

Digitizing and Reservation Guidelines

  • To ensure equipment availability, click the links below to reserve desired time.
    • Most reservation slots are for one hour with a few exceptions - see descriptions below.
    • Limit reservations to two consecutive time slots.
    • Reservation for multiple machines during the same time slot will result in a cancellation of the reservation. (If there is equipment other than the one you have reserved not being used while here, ask the receptionists if you can use it to maximize your efficiency while here.)
  • Be on time. If you are 20 minutes late, your time slot may be assigned to another patron. If you are going to be late, please call the Center at 435-755-5594 to notify us.
    • Keep confirmation email to cancel or reschedule if you are unable to come.
  • While using the scanning equipment, we ask that only family-owned documents, photos, videos, and movies be scanned, digitized or converted. Please do not scan, digitize or copy any material with commercial content or copyrighted material.
    • As a general rule, a work that is created on or after January 1, 1978 is automatically protected from the moment of its creation and is ordinarily given a term enduring for the author's life plus an additional 70 years after the author's death.
