LEWISTON — The Lewiston Public Library will host the Maine Historical Society for a program on the Maine Memory Network, MHS’s statewide digital museum, at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 4. The 90-minute program is free and open to the public.

Candace Kanes, curator and historian of Maine Memory Network, will provide an overview of the online museum’s content and search tools, as well as highlighting historical collections and stories on the site related to the host community.

Kanes will also discuss how individuals can engage with the website and how organizations can get involved.

Maine Memory Network is a 13-year-old online museum and archive of historical images, interpretive exhibits, community histories and more. Since 2001, MMN has provided a free service to historical societies, libraries and other collecting organizations to share photographs, documents, images of artifacts and stories about their communities’ histories.

A representative from the Leeds Historical Society will be on hand to discuss their experience with MMN as a contributing partner. Attendees may wish to bring a laptop or tablet to explore the website during and after the presentation.
