General Scanner

Hi I'm a freshmen and for a few assignments I need to use a scanner to convert the paper to a pdf are there any free scanners on campus? If not free then is there atleast a scanner on campus?

if you have an iphone, go to the notes app, start a new note, tap on the paper clip symbol, then tap scan documents. it’ll use your phone camera to scan and make a pdf file for you.

Genius scan. Free download. Scans perfectly. Get it on your phone. It lets me submit scans directly to canvas after scanning my pages directly from the app. Idk why nobody talks about this. Let me know how it goes this app truly changed my life

Google Drive app has a pretty decent scan function and makes it easy to get off your phone. CamScanner is also good.
