Scanning and Slidemaking Equipment
 wo self-service scanning stations (Windows NT and Macintosh) are available to all members of the Mount Sinai Community. They may be reserved for scanning images and making slides by calling the Medical School Computing Help Desk (x47091).
Policies and Procedures
All members of the Mount Sinai Community are welcome to use this equipment. Bear in mind that the slidemaking equipment is particularly popular. The following policies and procedures have been set up to allow efficiency and avoid confusion. Please respect these policies.
- This is a self-service workstation. Users should know how to use the software available (Powerpoint, Photoshop, etc.). Instruction in this software is not available.
- To use this equipment you must make a reservation at the Help Desk, either in person in the Media Resource Center or by phone (ext. 47091).
- Each person is allowed to reserve two hours a day for using the equipment.
All work must be finished during the assigned two hours.
- The reservation will be held for 10 minutes at the beginning of the two-hour
period. If the person who signed up for the machine does not come in or phone
to cancel within 10 minutes, the reservation will be forfeited. Users with three
forfeitures will no longer be allowed to book time on the slidemaking
workstation. (A cancellation does not count as a forfeiture.)
- The person using the machine must stay with it during the entire time the
slides are being printed. If the workstation is left unattended, the slidemaking
may be terminated to accommodate the next person.
- The Media Resource Center is not responsible for slides that appear unsatisfactory or do not print.
Equipment Needed for Slidemaking
- SO 100 35mm slide film (we recommend Kodak Ektachrome 100).
- The slide presentation on disk (3.5" floppy or ZIP). The file must be saved in PowerPoint. (No other presentation software is available.)

Computing Help Desk. You must have a library barcode on your ID.)
