[Bolling5] Information I have collected - Virginia Curry

Wed Feb 16 15:46:25 EST 2011

I'm not sure, but I believe Virginia's list is 
documents that she wants to share with others. I 
gave her a password to upload to our library, but 
the items might not be scanned or in text form, so she might need some help.

Information for everyone...... You may upload 
files to the library in almost any format. 
However, keep in mind that files created in 
uncommon programs will require the reader to have 
that program to view them. It's best to use files 
that most web browsers will open, such as .jpg, 
.gif, .txt, .doc, .pdf, etc.  Any type of file 
can be converted to PDF for easy viewing and 
download by using a simple utility. If you need 
help getting and using the utility, let me know.

Also, if you have items you wish to share, but 
don't have a user name and password to upload them, please let me know.

The library is at http://bolling5.com/documents
