This never came to fruition but in the early days of digitization on our campus the digitization center was located in the library (but not a library department).  One idea floated at the time was to utilize that department to provide digitization services to local companies.  Now that portions of some of this work has transitioned to digital scholarship, etc. departments in libraries, maybe that sort of possibility would be available to you.

Thanks

Dear all,
I have been tasked to research ways in which an academic library could possibly be a revenue producing entity at a small university. I have done a literature search, but thought I would pose this question to the collective wisdom (Apologies for cross-posting). 
Any libraries out there that have engaged in revenue generating activities and what have these activities been? What ideas did you come up with? How successful were they? What was more trouble than it was worth? What can a library expect to generate (at best)?
with thanks,
Carissa
