Take part in our Memories Preservation Project

91辦畦 Archives is making a call for people���s memories of the university and its predecessor institutions as part of its new project ���Memories Re-Animated���.

It is collecting memories of the history of the institution through a newly designed portal that will allow members of the public to submit video or audio recordings of their stories about the university, and anything else they might have relating to it such as images of photographs. Their memories will become part of a project to expand historical knowledge about the university through the voices of the people that were part of it, and provide the community that it has served with an opportunity to add to its archive collections.
