Jasper Public Library Hosts Historic Photo Scan-a-thon

Participants are encouraged to bring photographs depicting family events, community landmarks, historical celebrations, and other significant moments that highlights their community’s vibrant past. Scanned images will become part of a digital archive called, Indiana Album. Indiana Album is a nonprofit organization that borrows, digitizes, catalogs, and shares photographs, postcards, and graphics depicting Indiana from all eras. 

"We’re excited to offer the Scan-a-thon as a way to preserve the rich history of our community," said Genealogy Librarian Jill Watson. "It’s a great opportunity for families to protect their memories while helping us build a shared historical archive."
