With the launch of the Library’s website earlier this year, Historically Speaking Kitchener has a new home. Going forward, new and selected archived content from the blog will be found on the Library’s blog webpage. To follow Historically Speaking, please bookmark the new site.
As a webpage, readers will no longer be able to register to follow the blog, but I will continue to post to Twitter when a new post is made. You can also check the Historically Speaking webpage for new content and updates.
Please be aware that commenting and feedback have been turned off for this WordPress site.
On another note, I am happy to announce that our Oral History Tape Digitization Project has been completed and that interviews are now online. Read all about it here!
Congratulations and hearty thanks go to Julia Barclay, our Young Canada Works GSR Digitization Assistant for all of her work and care in crafting the records and digital files. A special thanks goes out to Bill Hancock at Media House for his services in digitizing the collection. It was a pleasure to work with him.
And to you, our readers, thank you for following, commenting and sharing our posts and content. I will miss interacting with you on this site, but please continue to reach out to me at localhistory@kpl.org if you have a comment, or information to share about the blog at our new home. We’ll include the address in our future posts so we can keep in touch!
Cheers, Karen Ball-Pyatt
Local History Librarian and Manager, Grace Schmidt Room
P.S. See you on the other side!
