I used a Nikon Supercool Scan 5000 and a bunch of high school kids looking for 
community service hours.  A win win.  They were completely computer literate, 
and FREE!  They got credit for performing a valuable service to this non profit 
hospital and over 30,000 slides were done over the course of a year.

You might contact the local high schools with an outline/scope of the project.

Hi Tim
We have done similar project. Very, very time consuming. We stille have the 
Nikon 5000 and it is SLOW. What we did was put a digital camera on a slide 
projector and load slide trays - went much faster and the resolution was good. 
We also had a slide projector converted to a slide cleaner called the "car 
wash". It used compressed air to blow dust off the slides, which were dirty - 
even in slide sleeves.  This is now set upo at a Kinkos Copy center here I 
believe. You might consider outsourcing this massive project?

Subject: [optimal] Film scanner w/feeder

Hi all,

I'm looking to purchase a scanner with an auto feeder. Kellogg wants to start 
scanning in all the old patient slides and start a teaching file. I use to use 
a Nikon scanner at Indiana University similar to this one 
http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product-Archive/Film-Scanners/9238/Super-COOLSCAN-5000-ED.html

Does anyone know of a good one to purchase or have one they are willing to sell 
with an auto feeder?

Thanks,
