 This project has provided Revenue staff the opportunity to learn more about the features of the scanner, improve their scanning skills, and tighten workflow processes. State Library staff members are thrilled to have forged such a beneficial partnership with
 Revenue staff. It is expected that the contents of the 460 drawers will be scanned by the end of the summer. Each card image is saved in both TIF and JPG formats. The scanner prints a file name, containing drawer number and the sequential card number, on the
 back of each card.</span></span><span style="font-size:14.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
