I am requesting a scanner for public use in our branch library, and the
main library administration has expressed concerns about library
accountability for copyright violations by users of the scanner.  I had
assumed that a notice similar to the one we post on our copy machines
should be sufficient.  The ARLIS-L archive contains several postings about
scanner equipment, but not much about copyright issues related to public
scanners.  Are most libraries posting a standard notice?

Many thanks for your advice.
