The news release from Siouxland Libraries is below:
——————————————-
Area residents who register for an appointment can bring their personal history―photos, letters, diaries, family histories, service records, and other historic or sentimental documents—to be scanned by the South Dakota State Library staff. The purpose of the event is to engage residents in building local and state history by sharing their items with the local library, museum, or South Dakota State Archives.
Participants will receive a complimentary copy on a USB flash drive.
Space is limited for this free program. Registration is required at www.siouxlandlib.org or by calling 367-8700. If you cannot attend, please cancel your reservation as a courtesy to those on the waitlist.
