My library is considering using a vending machine that would dispense 
office supplies i.e. flash drives, pens, tape, pencils, paper clips etc.

Does anyone have experience with this offering this service? If so, is 
staff responsible for stocking the machine or do you rely on a vendor to 
replenish items as needed? What kind  of payment does the machine 
accept--cash only, credit etc.? What has been the customer response to 
this service? Do you have any other suggestions or comments that we will 
need to consider?
