Tenant Screening for Tenants Without Internet Access

Does anyone know of a tenant screening service that I can do a credit, background and eviction history check on prospective tenants by entering their information myself when a tenant prospect does not have email or access to the internet? 

I have often used My Smart Move by Transunion and also used the services provided through my Buildium account, but I need more options since these services require the tenant to receive an email with a link to the screening request.

I know I could always require them to go to a public library and create an e-mail account and access it there, but that isn't so easy for some people.  I am diligent in my screening and I adhere to my requirements, but in my lower end rentals I encounter this problem fairly regularly.  How was this done before online access became so prevalent?

Thanks,

Brandon
