Do you have a ticketing system for your computer repairs and updates? Can it be queried for the number of mouse and keyboard replacements for the previous year?
Or, How fast can you replace, with new stock, when you drop to or below X number? How long or how many layers of bur…. Er financial types, to authorize a purchase?
If too many layers, just keep it all. ;-(

Subject: [Michlib-l] Keeping mice/keyboards
Calling on some collective wisdom here, we have an assortment of equipment in our computer room and I am attempting to clear some of it out. Our library has about 50 computers total – how many “extra” wired keyboards/mice do we really need
to have on hand? I think I currently have enough to refurbish most if not all of the computers in the building
J So, for those techies out there, how many do I really need - 10, 15, etc. ?
