In fact, I think she liked the scanning better because she got to do more - although she does like how the titles pop up one at a time on the screen as they are recognized.Karl Fischhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11121548023409279686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16660456.post-1150490642100352372006-06-16T14:44:00.000-06:002006-06-16T14:44:00.000-06:00Along the same lines...I went to the public librar...Along the same lines...I went to the public library today to check out some books, and they no longer use any actual people to check out books. Much like the do-it-yourself line at the grocery store, you swipe your library card and then place up to five books at a time underneath a scanner. A "radio frequency" (or something like that) can shuffle through the stack and automatically creates a check out list. You don't even have to scan them one at a time!
