20.3.1 Request Card Reader Services

Policy Statement

i-card Programs provides card readers for ongoing operations and for one-time or recurring events such as fee-based services, career fairs, and elections.

When a person swipes their ID card, the swipe reader records attendance or uses your unit's business rules to authorize persons for entry. Card swipes alert you when a person is not authorized to receive your services or has an expired card.
