If you reside in or are visiting the New York City area, you are invited to come in person to our New York City Digitization Center for a 30-minute session to digitally preserve your own records using our state-of-the-art Copibook scanner. This is a free event but registration is required.
NYG&B staff will guide you through the image capture technologies that we use in our digital preservation work. Participants will receive a free external drive that contains their own archivable, high-resolution digital files to take home.
For New York City residents who have accessibility issues and are unable to visit our offices in person, we offer Scan-NYC, a free mail-in option for digitally preserving family history records. If interested, complete the Scan-NYC inquiry form.
This series is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council.
