Let the scanning begin

As comes the end of summer, so comes the beginning of scanning. Are those of us who partake in this endless task of scanning book after book mad? Insane? Bored? Without a social life?

SPC: Update

Yes, yes. I’ve been absent for a week now. But I have a good excuse: I was sick. I even made it to the Student Health Center, twice. Now that I’m almost better, I thought I’d better report in.

SPC: Week 4 and 5

Week four was fraught with frustration, mostly involving OneNote 12 crashing in the middle of Calc class. I ended up using Journal and then copy and pasting my Ink back into OneNote. The price of beta testing I guess.
