[CALIBK12] Flash drives

[Virginia Hamilton]

We constantly had students who couldn't save their work on the library computers--disk drives were disabled, e-mail projects didn't always open, etc.  Some were even trying to use floppies!
 
So recently we ordered 2 packs (5 flash drives each) to try of HP USB Flash drives, 1 GB from Amazon.com.  We are selling them to the students at our cost of $7.00 each.  We checked with our head tech guru and he thought 1 GB would be good to start with.  And the students are thrilled.  (We also checked to make sure the student store wasn't selling them.)

I hate to rain on anybody's parade, but retail sales require a  license and
resale number.  You can ask for a donation, unless you have that in place.
Good luck
