Hi: I received a phone call and a follow-up email from a man at OCI. He says that they digitize high school yearbooks for free.
Has anyone heard about this project? Have any of you had actual experience with this company? Here are a couple of paragraphs from the email:
I am contacting you about a program that we began here in Oklahoma several years ago that has been a huge benefit for libraries and high schools across our state. We are now offering this FREE service to libraries, high schools and historical societies in other states that might want to participate in this program. I am hopeful that we might be of service to your community. We have had good reviews from libraries and schools in your state that have already participated in this program.
OCI is a state agency located in Lexington, Oklahoma. Our Records Conversion department has been in operation for over thirty years and consists of three areas; Data Entry, Digital Imaging and Image Review & Verification. We do records conversion for every state agency in Oklahoma. These include; the Department of Education, Department of Human Services, Department of Labor, the Oklahoma Supreme Court, and the Attorney General's Office, just to name a few. OCI is a rehabilitation and jobs training program that is affiliated with the Oklahoma Department of Corrections providing employment opportunities for low-risk offenders in a variety of different job skills in the computer operations field.
