Check with your college library. Ours has a free scanner for patrons
to use--you can e-mail the pics to yourself but not print them in the
library. I imagine you could create some sort of presentation on
your computer once you've got the images loaded. Has anyone else
tried this?

Do any of you costume instructors know of a source for costume/

but either I can't keep the book flat or I can't keep the camera
steady enough so the pictures come out decently.
Use a scanner. It's much easier to get a good image than with a
camera. You can find them anywhere, computer stores, department
stores, office supply, and they start under $100 -- sometimes under
$50. If you're going to be using it to take many pictures, it may
be a worthwhile investment.
