Subject: [DCRM-L] Cold light pad for scanning watermarks

Dear colleagues,

Please forgive me if this is not the right list for posting this question, but I could not think of an alternative. Perhaps someone might point me in a better direction?

I am trying to take an image of a watermark in a late medieval manuscript which is covered with thick script. Someone suggested a cold light pad might be useful, but I have never used one and do not know where to buy one. Does anyone have experience with cold light pads and/or can you make suggestions for vendors? Any other suggestions for devices that could be used for imaging watermarks (for a small library with modest means)?

Thank you,
Meghan
