To do
- Complete wiki pages for songs (eventually)
- Digitizing the Library
- I have found a copier that will scan pages and email them as pdfs. This removes my need for someone else's scanner, and perhaps will make it possible for me to start digitizing the pep band library as a safety precaution against part loss. Anyone can use the copier, however to get to it, your ID card needs special access. If anyone else has a scanner and wants to scan music, I will not stop you. I am offering my talk page as a means of tracking which songs have been scanned, so that organization can be made easier. I figure that one of the younger band members can eventually start burning these to dvd (I only say younger because T40s don't have dvd burners -.-' I realize this project will take much longer than the time I have left at RPI, it's just that it'll never get done until it gets started.
- A question and a suggestion: where are you keeping the scanned versions right now, and can you scan handwritten parts first? Hail, Alma mater, and the Rensselaer Union march are three songs that come to mind. Also, you might want to make mention next to each song scanned if any of the parts need touched up in photoshop.

Songs that have been digitized
112 - Malaguena (For some reason, a handful of the parts did not want to scan like the rest of them - flute and snare drum come to mind. They're legible, just not totally clean - no worse than a song that's been copied and recopied a number of times. I'm not quite sure what to do about it at the moment)
