<p class="MsoNormal">Kirsten--Here at MCL we shred our paper applications after entering them. We have never retained them. This has not prevented us from successfully sending library accounts to our collection agency when that has become necessary. We've
been doing that for many years as well. Given that we have something like 460,000 patrons we'd be in a pickle if we had to retain all those pieces of paper!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">We are trying to get a handle on our massive collection of old library card applications. Our city attorney feels that the applications for current accounts need to be retained
due to the signature, but we are drowning in paper and need to figure out a way to organize this paper, securely store what we need, and destroy what we don't.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"">I would like to scan all of the applications and store them as electronic searchable files. My first thought was that we need something like the Neat Desk portable scanner

need to put it through. Ideally I'd like to be able to scan both sides of the application at once, for speed reasons.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
