Re: [sudo-discuss] I want to establish a book scanner at Sudo room or in Oakland

by jacques revera

lockable should not be a problem. If noisebridge is donating one of the older designs, it would be framed with raw wood we can just screw some hinges and plywood in - to box it - to keep people from fiddling with the mechanisms. The cameras might need a more secure spot at the omni. Marc, Robb, Jake, I am looking forward to meeting and working with you. I am new to this list, the omni commons and the sudo room so please keep me straight on that. I am back in town Jan. 1 --- Tues Jan. 2 would be a good day for me to meet and begin - and maybe complete a plan and proposal if needed for the omni collectives. I have a van if there is a base-kit already constructed at noisebridge that needs to be picked up.

I want to establish a book scanner at Sudo room or in Oakland

by jacques revera

I would like to talk with any folks who can collaborate or help establishing a book scanner in Oakland. I am talking about a complete system, finished, effective and quick. I myself need to be able to scan quantities of books several times a month easily. I cannot afford the total cost maybe $1500 of the base kit, cameras(aprox $100 per) and computer hardware of full fledged system recommended by http://www.diybookscanner.org https://store.diybookscanner.org/collections/frontpage/ products/archivist-quill-book-scanner-base-kit There are many DIY project designs out there and software great to tinker with. But, what I am interested in is quickly completing setting up a fast stable system(or getting one donated or purchased) - and working with the projects and issues that begin at that point: starting with scanning lots of books. I have a huge number of books I need to scan for personal and political projects which have broader applications. I would prefer working on a system that could serve many people and needs - and I would be interested in being part of a collective working on getting books scanned and converted to accessible formats (particularly http://daisy.org) - but also interested in working on making the system available to more people and the whole thing accessible for the disabled. I am also interested in discussing working on the further extensions of accommodating reading disabilities, books and computer access for the blind. I volunteer at Revolution Books to fight the power and transform the people for revolution. I have a good basis in literature of art, politics, history, science and international fiction needing to be read and made available. I have a reading disability. I have taught TV production and media in public schools. I live in Oakland. Jacques
