The microfilms were shipped to Crowley via FedEx (overnight) on August 8.

On 8/19 Keith from Crowley called to say they had finished scanning the microfilm.  He had a question about the file names: Archives requested a file naming scheme that included the notebook number, but not all of the notebooks have numbers on their target sheets.  After looking into it, Tom Rosko decided that the unnumbered notebooks should be called AA, BB, CC, etc.

July 22, 2008--- 

The Edgerton Center (at MIT) is planning a website of Edgerton's work. The Center would like to include scanned images of the Edgerton notebooks held by the Institute Archives in microfilm format. Archives is waiting to hear from a contractor about the price of scanning the microfilm. Liz said that the scanned images will represent artifacts that no longer exist since the photographs were removed from the original notebooks after they were microfilmed. Liz expressed concern that we might lose track of miscellaneous but relevant information like this if we don't document it. There followed some discussion about how to address this problem. Minutes of the various Dome project subgroups is seen as one way to keep track of special considerations that are not addressed on the project forms. In addition, Beverly will identify a place on the DSG wiki where staff members may post special considerations or issues about various projects.
