Preserving Your Memories: A Workshop on Family Film, Photo & Document Preservation
In this hands-on workshop, filmmaker and librarian Ashley Maynor will demonstrate best practices for protecting and preserving home movies, photographs, and documents. She will explain how to store and care for these items and provide information for ordering archival quality photo albums and supplies. She will also discuss online tools and services to organize digital photographs, store digital copies of family documents, and create new, archival-quality albums
from scanned photos. Participants are invited to bring their own home movies (8mm, Super 8, etc.) and heirloom documents or photos for inspection, repair tips and recommendations.
The workshop will end at 8pm. There will be a film screening from 8- 9:30pm.
