Drawings - help

[Carol R. Beigel]

You can photogaph the pictures in the books you have in either of two ways.
Use slide film (Tungstan so the color comes out right), or use a good
digital camera.  Or you can take the book to a professional photographer and
they can do this.  If you are careful, and have some help, it is possible to
scan pictures in a book, no matter how fragile or large.  Since you are
using the pictures for educational purposes, and not for profit, you don't
have to worry about copyright.
