Join Mac Conmara Heritage for a special presentation on the digitisation of two previously at-risk oral history collections from County Westmeath. This initiative, led by the Heritage Office of Westmeath County Council and supported by the Heritage Council, has transformed fragile analogue tapes into a dynamic digital archive, capturing personal stories from the River Shannon, Traveller women’s experiences, and community memories. Discover the process behind preserving these precious voices, from identifying vulnerable materials to creating rich, searchable metadata, and learn how digital tools are shaping the future of our oral heritage.
