PICTURE COLLECTION

SESSION

2.00 to 7.00 pm

at

Moorside Church

Drighlington

Bring your photos and memories,

or just come along to see

what we are doing.

See below for more info

Come to our sessions and see for yourself what we are doing.  Bring with you any items of local interest showing life in all its facets - ordinary people and activities with a Morley area connection are as welcome as more significant events. 

The more information we have about an item, the more valuable it is to the archive.  Identify people where you know them, and when and where pictures were taken, and bring these details with you too.  For group photographs, a numbered diagram identifying people is very useful, and saves time. 

What about copyright?

It is important that any material you provide for the archive should belong to you and not be copied from other publications, or have been taken by a professional photographer.  In some circumstances, printed material, such as old postcards, is acceptable.  If in doubt, bring it along and we will check it for you.

What will we do at a session? 

First we will ask you to sign a copyright release form, and then a member of the group will talk to you about your memories and pictures and note down the details.  Next, the items will be scanned into the computer and given back to you to take home.  Sometimes, we may record your reminiscences onto tape and include them in the archive as sound rather than pictures.
