Luther Memory Project

Free Scanning Day Hosted by Metropolitan Library System and the Luther Historical Society to help preserve your important documents and cherished memories. Bring your photos, letters, and records, and we'll help you make digital copies to protect them for years to come. 

The items you bring for scanning can be added to the Luther Historical Society Collection in the Special Collections and Research archive with your written permission. You can also learn more about how the library collects personal histories of individuals and families by doing oral history interviews. 

Why Attend?
Protect your memories: Digital copies ensure your photos and documents last for years to come.
Easy and convenient: Our volunteers will handle the scanning for you—just bring your items!
No cost: This service is free for our community. 

What to Bring:
Family photos and keepsakes
Letters, postcards, event programs
Any personal items you’d like to preserve in digital form

Don’t have items to scan? That’s okay! You can still join us to chat, learn about local history, and enjoy the company of neighbors. Library staff will be on hand to share information about how you can donate items to the Luther Historical Society Collection or sign up to participate in an oral history interview.
