Hello,
Hello,
Both Library 21c and East have converters. The machines are generally available whenever the library is open and all you will need is an SD memory card. If you have any questions, please call the Makerspace at 719-884-9800 x6364.
Thank you.

Digitizing VHS tapes to a thumb drive possible?
Do you offer digitizing of VHS tapes?
PPLD Librarian replied on Permalink
Digitizing VHS tapes
Hi Michael,
Thanks for your question. PPLD offers VHS converters at East Library and Library 21c, near the makerspaces. These converters are available during our standard operating hours, and can copy a VHS tape over to a DVD-R or DVD+R disc, but not to a digital format. Please note, you must supply your own recordable discs. Also, a VHS tape can only be copied if the copyright/overwriting protection tab is intact, and not removed.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions, and thanks for contacting us!
