<br>
The Center has the following equipment available to you:


== Lessons ==
:*Flatbed Scanner.  Excellent for books, documents, certificates, and items with thick bindings. Individually scans multiple pictures from a single page.
:*Batch Picture Scanner.  Uses a feed tray which allows items to be scanned much faster than on the flatbed.
:*Slide Scan.  Automatically scans 35mm slides from a standard slide carousel.
:*Lexmark Color Copier/Printer/Scanner.  Converts multiple page documents into a single pdf file.  This is ideal for preserving and sharing typewritten family histories.
