Resources

The Colorado River Computer Club owns a projector capable of displaying a computer monitor on a large screen. It is used regularly for presentations at our meetings. We also own a portable notebook computer which presenters can use. It is equipped with a pcmcia modem which can interface with the high speed T1 line installed in the Mohave County Library or any ordinary telephone line for internet access.

The club also maintains a library of videos and other miscellaneous items for use by its members. We own a video camera and usually tape our meeting presentations. A detailed inventory is available and materials can be checked out by members.
