Abstract

The article focuses of facsimile transmission systems. Facsimile is a system of communication in which a photograph, map, or other fixed graphic material is scanned by a transmitter and the information converted into signal waves for transmission by wire or radio to a facsimile receiver at a remote point. To further familiarize the library profession with the names of manufacturers of facsimile equipment as well as their different trade names, and to differentiate between facsimile transmission and other types of electronic communication, a dictionary of facsimile terms has been compiled. These dictionary entries have been compiled from several journal references, but most have been compiled from product brochures sent to the authors in response to a written request.
