Scan and Share days

2013 saw a number of scan and share days held for the Illawarra Remembers project. Each scan day was extremely successful and received very well by the local community who contributed greatly to the project.

Illawarra Remembers’ first scan and share day was held at Thirroul Library and Community Centre on 26 June 2013. Contributors shared a variety of family keepsakes ranging from photographs, diaries, letters and drawings to medals, badges and ID bracelets. The success of the day was resonated by a WIN News segment on 28 June.

Over the following months Dapto Library, Kiama Library and Wollongong City Libraries hosted scan and share days which were equally successful.

Our next scan and share day will be held at Wollongong City Library on 10 October 2014. Keep an eye out for more information which will be posted in upcoming months.
