Hello again all... for what it's worth, I do know Ginnie Cooper, the D.C. Public Library Director.  
I saw past threads about looking for folks to collaborate with in D.C. - I'd be happy to introduce anyone to her if that is helpful.

So: some great ideas suggested so far
- work with George Mason's History and New Media project (awesome for
historical reasons - they funded the first Wikimedia-related grant I
ever applied for, in early 2005).
Q: do they have space for a lab?

- the top idea on http://www.allourideas.org/dpla/results : "work with
GPO, DTIC, NARA etc to provide access to fed docs, perhaps offering
assistance for digitization"
Q: A liblab could definitely do this.  What do those orgs currently
need in the way of help?
Related: how can we define a plan with the Internet Archive or other
scanner-providers to get equipment soon?

Finally, I invited Nate Hill, a local librarian and eloquent writer
from my public library (SJPL) who was at last week's meeting, to join
this list.  He has been thinking about how to set up library outposts,
and can help advise on what might make a good first demonstration.
