Are you trying to deal with a basement full of old family photos and VHS tapes that predate your cell phone's nearly-full memory? The Knox County Library can help you with that!
Not by sending someone to
declutter your storage space, sorry, but by giving you a chance to digitize those precious home movies of family celebrations, snapshots from your childhood and boxes of slides your dad kept in the hall closet for decades.
The Memory Lab at Lawson McGhee Library downtown provides library card holders with access to equipment "to digitize, edit, and store personal media such as home movies on videotape; images including photographic prints, slides, and negatives; and audio cassette tapes," plus basic help in how to use it.
Find information at knoxcountylibrary.org/memory-lab about what's available and how to reserve a room at the Memory Lab.
