Seriously, there is an HLUG Linux Library.
It is located in an old set of gym lockers in the Workshop at HAL-PC HQ.
We already have sponsorship from O'Reilly & New Rider/PeachPit.
Russell Adams has donated an old laptop which mat be suitible for administration.
Willie Simmons has donated a bunch of Unix books.
Aaron Estrada has donated the locks & some books, and is working on an administration script.
The books are available now for use during our Wednesday Workshops.
When the administration script is finished, and other details worked out, we will be a real lending library.
- Catalog the books we have
- Label the books we have
(You know "Property of ..." & "Donated by ...")
- Find an easy way to catalog books we may get
(A barcode scanner & on-line database wold be ideal -- dream on)
- Make up Library Policy
- Who may borrow
- For how long
- What limbs do we break if not returned ...
- Wish List
- Paint the Library Lockers
- Label the Library Lockers
