Community Digitization Day

Presented by the Maryland State Archives

Preserve your documents, photos, and letters with the assistance of Maryland State archivists. At this event, you can scan up to 3 items and take home originals and digital copies for free. You'll also have the option to share your digital copies and have them included in the Archives' permanent electronic collection and PGCMLS's Prince George's Room collection.

We are especially interested in materials related to Prince George’s County, but all materials are welcome.

This program is a collaboration between Prince George's County Executive's Office of Latino Affairs, the Maryland State Archives, and the Prince George's County Memorial Library System.

Registration is mandatory due to limited space. We kindly ask participants to sign up early and notify us of any cancellations so that we can accommodate customers on the waitlist.

Please use the QR Code on the poster to register.
