Maybe I should be more specific. I have access to equipment designed to
scan microfiche and save as a file. Said file can also be ICR'd.

When the auction matures a little bit I'll be bidding. If the fiche
don't go too high in bids and I win, my intent is to scan/icr them and
build a website from the data. If there is too much concern about
copyrights then at least I'll have data that I can share in an easily
transported digital form.
