eReaders hardware / paper waste reduction

[David Fawcett]

Sounds like they could replace their paper use with a website.

And no, an e-reader (like a kindle or something like that) is most
certainly not what you'd want. You'd want either a regular computer to
access the webpage which your food bank may already have or a tablet PC and
a wireless connection to the internet.
