There are no plans or budget to scan this material en mass, so it wouldn't make
sense for anyone to come here assuming they would be allowed to do that.

If you look at the actual museum policy on copying material in the collection,
it is done on demand by staff at 50 cents per page.

I understand, that in few days we can't scan all, but it is a start?

Oh Dear Al what are you doing!

That is a really negative statement. You are protecting nothing.
As an ex-DEC employee I can tell you that that would annoy so many people to whom the information relates. DEC was a world wide company and there must be world wide access to the information.
This material must be made available a widely as possible.
For God's sake man scanning is the one thing that will preserve the originals from future handling.

Stop this Policy and Budget nonsense and accept gracefully the help you have been offered.
