We are part of a pilot program that includes Family Search, Internet Archives, and the University of Florida. The University of Florida provides the facility and a large collection of books with genealogical significance as determined by Family Search. Internet Archives provides the scanning equipment, expertise, a part-time employee to help publish the materials we scan, and a means to distribute the end result. Family Search provides the man power (missionaries) and an avenue for distribution. Since everyone is a "winner", it is a model that they hope can be replicated in other locations.
This is part of our team. Elizabeth is our trainer from Internet Archives.
Notice the dress! A mission without ties, white shirts or dresses!
This is our scanner. We basically take pictures of each page in a book.
