On the 27th July, we were invited to talk at the RunCoco and Culturenet  Cymru's Community Collections workshop day at the National Library of Wales.

There's a much more comprehensive post than I could manage on the link back from this post, but I do have to say that it was a really enjoyable day and great to see some of the work that's going on both here in Wales and further afield.

Some of the highlights for me included listening to the many projects that are going on aimed specifically at capturing personal memories and digitally archiving objects that have some of the most amazing stories to tell - like the series of photographs of a family inside a wallet that had been pierced with a single bullet during WW1.

There was also the chance for us geeky types to talk to Brian Teeman - I would definitely look him up...

All in all I had a great time and I would like to offer our thanks to Alun and Paul for inviting us along.

There is a recording of the presentation I gave somewhere which I'll post here along with the presentation I gave.

Meantime check the links back to the RunCoco site and enjoy some of the work that's going on.
