Archives Alive - BLOGathon!

October is American Archives Month: a time to focus on the importance of the collections of archival and historical records and to highlight the archival professionals and procedures responsible for maintaining these rich and complex documentary resources.

In celebration of this event, the reference staff of Wayne Public Library is sponsoring in October a 31-day “ARCHIVES ALIVE BLOGathon” to answer our patrons’ questions concerning how to care for and preserve your family memories. Wayne’s professional librarians trained in conservation and preservation will post to and monitor the Wayne Public Library’s Blog for 31 days (excluding weekends) offering tips and suggestions to help you with your personal family display and storage questions.

Please visit the Lockett Room at the library on Valley Road where more than 2,000 items relevant to Wayne, Passaic County or New Jersey reside.

A Librarian will reply to your question on the BLOG so check back for your answer!
