IRHS - Grants Iron Range Historical Society GRANTS Arrowhead Library System Mini-grant The Iron Range Historical Society was awarded a mini-grant of $250 from the Arrowhead Library System for 2024 to purchase a black and white copier. Patrons, and volunteers alike, will be less frustrated with the process of making copies. Patrons can find and take a photo or have volunteers take a photo of newspaper items and print directly from the printer using Wi-Fi. Large documents and bound books that can’t be placed on the printer can be easily, and almost effortlessly, created by the printer via Wi-Fi after using our scanning wand or our large document scanner. Those who have used the printer are pretty excited by the Wi-Fi capability, especially. We made an enlarged copy of a yearbook picture for a patron by first scanning it on our large document scanner, enlarging it on the laptop and then printing the enlargement on the printer. The patron was very happy to get this copy as he could then see the faces of the people better. We have saved paper by printing articles for patrons on both sides which helps the budget of IRHS as we do not charge a fee for copies.
