Springwire is a local non-profit organization that is offering free document scanning this Thursday, March 28 on the 5th Floor of the Downtown Public Library from 1:00-5:00pm. You’re invited!
Last week at the library, we scanned more than 300 pages of documents for Community Voice Mail users, including birth certificates, legal paperwork, ID cards and personal documents. If you have any document or piece of paper that you want to turn into an electronic file and store in your email, please consider attending. It’s fast, easy, free and completely confidential. We put your documents through a scanner, you send them to yourself as an email attachment, and then we delete them off our laptops. We never ask for or need to know your password or other information – we just help you turn your paper documents into electronic ones.
Why might you want to do this?
• To make a copy of your important files in case the originals are lost.
• To be able to forward by email a resume or other document to a potential employer or a service provider.
• For the peace of mind that comes from knowing all your paperwork is safely stored somewhere else, and can easily be re-printed if you need to.
We’ll scan anything that is important to you. We only require that you have an email address and a basic knowledge of how to access your information online.
Here are the details for this document scanning event:
When: Thursday, March 28 from 1:00 – 5:00pm
Where: 5th Floor, Downtown Seattle Public Library (4th Ave. & Spring Street - click here for a map and bus routes)
Bring: All paperwork and pieces of paper that you’d like to store in your email or other online location
We’re located on the 5th floor next to the free tax-preparation services being provided by United Way. Look for us at the Springwire table, and we’ll see you there!
