Preserve Your Past gives our community an opportunity to preserve and digitise their memories.
We have digitisation equipment in our Waipawa Library to help our communities preserve and share their heritage.
We can assist you to digitise your heritage images, documents, oral messages/conversations, family photos and more.
At the Waipawa Library we are offering 2x 1 Hour Slots on a Tuesday where you can book in and we can assist you to digitise your heritage.
These time will be 10am-11am and 11am-12pm.
To book a slot please call the Waipawa Library on 06 857 8123.
The equipment we use is designed to be SUPER user-friendly. Anyone can learn to use it!
