Are you interested in delving into the past of the Clarence Valley?
Did you know that you can help preserve the history of the Clarence Valley and beyond?
April is the perfect opportunity to connect with the history of our local area – we are celebrating both Plunge and the heritage festival. Come along to Grafton Library to find out how you can help make our history more accessible! We will start off by introducing Amplify, our oral history transcribing platform and finish with how you can become a Voluntrove! (Someone who helps provide text correction for the digitised copies of the Daily Examiner available on Trove.)
The Clarence Regional Library has partnered with the State Library of NSW to provide access to our oral history collection on Amplify.
Amplify is powered by the State Library of NSW and gives access to hundreds of oral histories from libraries and museums across Australia. A selection of oral histories from the Reflections on the Clarence oral history project are available on online. The Reflections on the Clarence oral history project was sponsored by the Grafton U3A in 2009 to celebrate Grafton’s sesquicentenary.
