I can make requests for large scale purchases like new keyboards or expensive power machinery to come out of the Conservatory's capital budget. We (three full-time people and several work-study students) do moving within the Conservatory complex but have people from the maintenance pool do moving that requires a truck. Good luck in getting more money. Ken Sloane, Oberlin conservatory
