Executive Summary with Rationale and Impact:
Detailed description of the item and why we are doing it. This can be a separate attachment.
This bill request would authorize the purchase of a camera kit (PHASE ONE iXG 100MP Kit), including extension tubes, lenses, and warranties, from the Denver Public Library’s General Fund appropriation. There is sufficient appropriation to support the expense. Authorization is needed because the purchase price exceeds the $50,000 threshold requiring City Council approval. This camera kit will replace and modernize the existing camera system purchased 20 years ago that is used to photograph and digitize oversize and bound material, fragile materials that cannot be placed on a flatbed scanner, art, and film. The camera purchased 20 years ago is out of warranty, at the end of its useful life, and cannot capture the entire frame in focus.
