Helping to Justify Academic Library Budgets Since 2004
KIC is a self-serve scanning system that instantly turns your print collection into a digitize-on-demand collection.
KIC is often considered the most important piece of technology in the library.
KIC makes PDF files instead of paper copies, but it can print too, so it replaces copiers. With KIC you can clip, crop, split pages. You can scan your thesis papers and print books!
Control, update and monitor your KIC systems remotely. All usage statistics can help you to determine the best KIC configuration for each site. And to make it easier to navigate from KIC to KIC system, KIC Fleet Manager allows you to select a particular KIC system via either of two methods: a map or a list. KIC Fleet Manager lets you update KIC systems remotely.

KIC Study System, KSS, is an amazing new capability of KIC and MyDocs.

KSS includes three great study capabilities:
Because MyDocs and KSS run on android and Apple phones and tablets, students can also study anywhere and anytime they have a free moment.

KIC POD is a wonderful new addition to the growing capabilities of KIC. It is included in all new releases of KIC at no additional charge, and therefore does not need to be purchased separately. With KIC's new Print On Demand functionality, students can bring PDFs of their theses into the library, order printed copies at reasonable prices, ensured by KIC’s book printing marketplace, pay by credit card and the book(s) will be printed, packaged and shipped within days. Most universities no longer offer such services because of diminishing demand. However, many students today would like to have a few printed copies of their thesis books, and with KIC POD, it is easy and cost-effective. Faculty can also compose books from their course materials, and if there are no copyright issues, they can print hardbound or paperback books for their students. In addition, library staff, faculty and other university employees can bring from their homes to the library, a few dozen to several hundred of their printed photos, scan them on KIC, compose a beautiful digital scrap book using KIC’s huge touch screen and order printed books. Of course, KIC can also scan existing scrap books and photo albums, recipe cards, book excerpts, loose papers, newspaper & magazine articles, and more, and they can also be turned into digital books and printed books ordered. With its huge touch screen and ultra-easy user interface, clipping, cropping, rearranging content and pages is easy, even for the most technically timid users!
