Some of these requirements are more necessary than others...
We will need a few computers, though some of the devices like scanners could also be connected to laptops that people bring in perhaps.
- Live CDs
We might be able to create Ubuntu Live-CDs with the required software for the various modules. This would make it easy to bring in a handful of computers for a workshop and get them up and running quickly. A live CD would also be a useful component of the modules themselves, making them easily replicable elsewhere.
Audio-video module
- project leaders:
- Rachel
- add your name ...
- project members:
- Patrick Timony - accessibility - Adaptive Services has scanners and some tools for creating accessible formats. We also can help with captioning videos.

- computer or laptop
- external hard drive
- Roxio (for old home movies on VHS) http://www.roxio.com/enu/products/easy-vhs-to-dvd/mac/overview.html?rTrack=b_easyvhsmac $80 (is there an open source equivalent that's just as good/easy-to-use?)

- adaptive services or other parts of the library already have flatbed scanners that probably would work just fine.
- DIY photo scanner
- flatbed scanner, portable if possible yet high quality
- software
- gimp (image editing)
