Have you heard of CanterburyStories.nz? If you haven’t, Canterbury Stories is a digital heritage repository hosted by Christchurch City Libraries which shares and preserves the collective histories of Christchurch people, places and events. The Libraries work to give a voice to the diverse communities that have, and continue to, shape the Christchurch we see today.
Community groups are being offered the opportunity to share their photographs and stories via Canterbury Stories and become part of the city’s ever changing history. The Libraries have two Community Stories Liaisons who will help you every step of the way including selecting your photographs, digitisation and writing descriptions. The team will then upload the content so you can share it with your community.
If you have anything you’d like to share and see featured on Canterbury Stories, contact Sarah or Simon at LibraryCommunityStories@ccc.govt.nz
Or you are always welcome to contact Vanessa, and she will help you liaise.
