Interested in moving to a Duplication on Demand service model, but not sure how you’ll get enough cartridges and other supplies? There’s help available! NLS is offering supplies to all network libraries that are willing to transition to zero copy allotment--whether they plan to implement Gutenberg or Scribe.
Many of you have already heard about this and some have already put in their request, but please read on anyway—we’ve worked with NLS to make sure we’re accurately covering all the important details.
On top of that, we’ve developed a worksheet to help you plan your implementation process, including when you will need additional supplies.
Just the Facts
When you are ready, you can order from NLS:
- Up to half of your total need for cartridges and containers.
(Total need is calculated based on 5 cartridges per active audio patron, so half works out to 2.5 cartridges and cases per active patron.)
- Pre-printed cartridge and container labels with your library information
In return, you will need to work towards full duplication service. NLS expects libraries to zero out their copy allotment within 12 months of implementing duplication on demand.

As more Talking Book libraries are considering which Duplication on Demand equipment and workflow to implement, we're working to help you make an informed choice about what will work best for your library, your staff, and your patrons. That means more resources and more opportunities to ask questions and get in-depth answers.
Two specific things we're working on are:
- Scribe Cartridge Recycling video
- Duplication on Demand Q&A webinar
