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.

For details about additional programs and resources, including more about Jim and other library patrons' stories, visit [brightonlibrary.info/see](http://brightonlibrary.info/see).
