Hi -
Does anyone know of a state that shares captions or transcripts between
colleges? I seem to remember that one did, but I don't know how they got
around copyright infringement.
We are requesting funding from the state for captioning that could be used
by all 17 community colleges in the state. It would really help our request
if we could say that we will share the captions or transcripts (if that's
not a copyright violation).
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Karen

I would also love to hear about group captioning/transcription endeavors, like pooling resources to pay for a statewide or system wide license for captioning tools.
