Target: Biometric security devices in the library

[Doug Johnson <johnsd9@MAIL.MANKATO.MSUS.EDU>]

Hi folks,

I received a call from a Twin Cities reporter this morning asking if our
school was using any biometric security measures (fingerprint recognition)
for student library materials checkout. We in Mankato are not, and I don't
know of any schools in the area that are.

Is anybody out there using or considering using such a system? If you can
provide any information to me, please drop me an email. I will create a hit.

Thanks!

Doug
