GENERAL DGS NEWS
Main DPL Auditorium at 6:30 pm Tuesday, 2
March. Actual scanning will take place from March
3-20 in the Genealogy section of the Dallas Public
Library, Eighth Floor. Note that for some
documents a digital camera will be taken in lieu of
the scanner. The NGS staff doing the scanning will
choose the method that best preserves the old
documents and photos while producing images that
can be used by the public. You can learn more
about them at:
www.NGSgenealogy.org/library/familypapers.htm.
or http://johnwylie.com/dgsngsfpc.pdf
Hours:
Monday - Thursday, 12:00 noon to 8:00 p.m.
Saturdays, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Sundays, 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Appointments are not required, except for large
collections (those over 150 pages), just drop by
with your documents. While this program
emphasizes Bible pages, diaries, journals and
certificates, any unpublished historical document
will be scanned for you. Each contributor will get a
CD containing digital images of all of their personal
documents, including those NGS chooses not to
use. Many will want to store these CDs in a safe
box or other secure location.
So, dig through your old stuff, select what you'd like
to have digitized for free and drop by the Library
during the listed hours. You'll be glad you did and
so will your descendants.
