What are the JRI-Poland guidelines for Photocopying Index Pages ?
The basic rule for photocopying index pages is to make the largest and best quality copy possible. Since other people s handwriting is always a challenge, using the best quality copy possible will make the job easier. Shtetl CO-OP Coordinators are urged to make and retain good quality photocopies prior to mailing pages to volunteers to enter. It will make it easier to proofread the volunteers work later, and will save you a step (and money) in the event that a volunteer doesn t complete the assigned work. If you are willing to photocopy the indexes for a town, but are not able to transliterate them yourself and do not wish to organize the volunteer effort to transliterate them JRI-Poland will attempt to find volunteers after you send us the photocopies. In this case, we ask that you send us only FIRST GENERATION copies of the index pages. A first generation copy is one copied directly from the source, not a copy of a copy for with each generation, the quality deteriorates. Index pages
