At the University of Tennessee (Knoxville campus) a decision was made
a long time ago that it was in the best interest of the
university--particularly with HR files having looooooong
retentions--to do filming "free." We also do filming of records
series without a long retention, but the unit pays for it. If I were
in Gus's place, I'd say, "sure, we will do the scanning--on a
cost-plus basis" and get full recovery on all of it--equipment,staff,
media--the whole bit. Yes, take it into your shop the same way you do filming.
