Memory Lane - "Preserving our heritage"
- Description
-
Journalist Tina White's weekly "Memory Lane" article in the Manawatū Standard. This article marks the 10th anniversary of Palmerston North Library's heritage archive going digital. It started in 2008 with the launch of Pataka Ipurangi/Manawatū Memory Online, a project to digitise photos held in the Ian Matheson Community archives. By 2016 the technology had become outdated and was replaced with the interactive Manawatū Heritage website. A much wider range of materials was able to be added. The website now includes maps, plans, photo albums, film and oral history interviews. The site can be accessed from all over the world on a digital device for finding, downloading and sharing most of the content.
The library's Heritage team encourages contributions of local history material from the public and also welcomes additional information about material already published on Manawatū Heritage.
