The Town of Carbonear was approved for Young Canada Works in Heritage Organizations funding.

The Town of Carbonear is seeking a motivated individual to assist with our Oral Histories/Stories Collection and Digitization project. The student will work on organizing and digitizing the existing audio collection to ensure it is more accessible to the public, as well as properly preserved. The student will be responsible creating descriptions/notes from interviews for the database and uploading recordings to our Social media platforms for public access. As well, the student will be responsible for recording new audio from members of the community and region on topics that represent gaps in the exhibit material on display currently. The ideal candidate should have a passion for history and an interest in working with digital technology and media apps to share the information.
