Library Celebrates Genealogy and Photo Preservation

**Library Lovers Celebrate Genealogy and Photo Preservation at Brighton District Library**

As February wraps up, Library Lovers’ Month is ending on a high note at the Brighton District Library in Brighton, Colorado. Jim, a regular library patron and genealogy enthusiast, has been impressed by the resources available through the library's Genealogy and Local History Librarian, Jordan. From engaging genealogy classes to informative monthly drop-in sessions, Jordan has been a vital support for patrons interested in uncovering their family history.

This week, the library is hosting **Photo Scanning Week**, a unique opportunity for the community to learn how to digitally preserve their treasured photos. Participants can book time slots to scan and save high-quality digital copies of their pictures. To register for a session, visit [bit.ly/bdlphotoscan](https://bit.ly/bdlphotoscan).

Jim has already enjoyed the photo scanning programs and is excited about the **Photo Preservation program**, scheduled to take place at the end of the month. He encourages everyone to take advantage of this service during the last few days of Library Lovers’ Month.
