We have not had this happen to us yet. We would not allow people to scan our
documents at this time. We do make Xerox copies for them and charge for
that.This is something we need to address at the Kenosha History Center
Archives.

Subject: Scanning Documents
How do others handle a situation like this:
We have researchers who bring their own laptops and flatbed scanners along
when doing research at our museum.
If they find documents in our files relating to their research, they scan
them into their computers. At this time we
are not charging anything as this practice is relatively new. How do other
museums accommodate this situation?
Do you charge per page? Or do you charge a flat fee?
Thanks for your help.
