Procedures for using Library Services for Faculty & Staff

Procedures for Scanning of Information

Our Lab in Room 7-201 provides you with the tools necessary to scan paper or transparency originals, text or images, into a digital format. The ability to scan information will depend on the size and quality of the copy.  Please note, copyright restrictions apply (https://tunxis.edu/college-information/copyright-infringement-policy/). 

We cannot guarantee more than 80% accuracy for scanned documents. Verification and modifications are the responsibility of the requestor.

Media Equipment Storage, Reservation, and Equipment Borrowing Procedures 

Faculty and Staff may borrow various technologies for video/audio recording and presentation at the Circulation Desk. Please reserve items in advance by emailing us at [email protected] . Last minute and walk-in requests will be honored when possible, but reservations will be filled first. College Personnel are required to pick-up (Check Out) and return (Check In) equipment as we do not have staff available for delivery of equipment. Equipment being checked out must be used for Collegerelated work and is expected to be returned to the Circulation Desk

Check out/check in procedures:

  • College personnel must provide their Tunxis ID at time of check out. We are not able to loan this equipment to students.
  • College personnel will be responsible for returning equipment to the Library Circulation Desk and are responsible for notifying a staff member of any noticeable problems with the equipment 

Custom Media Design Services

We provide custom media design for use in an online and on campus courses.

Media Development

Development of custom digital content
Digital media can be designed by Library staff in the format that works best for a given situation.

Audio and Video Production
Library staff are able to capture and edit audio or video from other sources and convert it to a digital format.

  • Video clips of copyrighted material may NOT exceed 10 percent of the work or three minutes whichever is less.
  • Audio clips of copyrighted material may NOT exceed 10 percent and no more than 30 seconds whichever is less.

To produce videos, there is a videographer on staff who can record an event, help edit the resulting footage, add titles, graphics and menus (subject to availability.)
