Free & open to public
The UA Special Collections invites you to come participate in the sharing and preservation community stories! Bring up to ten family photographs, postcards, letters, certificates, brochures or programs (maximum size: 11" x 17"), and Special Collections will scan them for free. You can also contribute to the public record of the Tucson/UA community by giving University Libraries permission to share the scans of your original documents in an online archive. Participants keep the originals, get a USB drive with digital copies of your items, and take home a Family Archives Kit-first come, first served-to help care for your historical materials! Prof. Jamie A. Lee, Director of the Arizona Queer Archives, will be at this event to share more about the AQA!
