[CASL-L] If you are a GAFE school

[Sue Lantelme]

Have you considered requesting a designated space or 'folder' on your school's Google account for the library? Let me explain further. We have been scanning our school's newspaper (1979 till 2014, when we went digital) and a retired cross country coach has put together a very large (40MB) collection of the history of the sport including stats, and scanned photos.  I'd want to share these 2 collections & maybe more out to the public, especially alumni. Our IT manager says we could do that once we transition to a GAFE school.

It's incredible how much local history we physically have in the library & it'd be incredible to share!  I've thought through the copyright implications (although I haven't asked the question specifically) & would stay away from yearbooks until I complete further research. You're wondering how we're getting the scanning done? I have a student intern.

Suggestions? Experience?  Questions?

Thank you!

"What an astonishing thing a book is. It's a flat object made from a tree with flexible parts on which are imprinted lots of funny dark squiggles. But one glance at it and you're inside the mind of another person..." Carl Sagan
