Photos from The Tank Family Farm, Oshkosh, WI.
Sneak a peak at some of our archival scrapbooks and photo albums online.
Affinity Archives Web Albums on Picassa
These days, many of the pictures we’re acquiring for the Affinity Archives come in digital format. While this poses some unique preservation challenges (Will they be around 100 years from now? Think about the fate of 8-track tapes from the 1970s …), it does allow us to make these pictures much more accessible to people.
If you have pictures (digital or paper) that you would like to donate to the MMC or STE Library Archives, contact us :
Michele Matucheski at MMC mmatuche@affinityhealth.org
Margo Lambert at STE mlambert@affinityhealth.org
What are we looking for?
People, places, and events from around Affinity, and Affinity in the Communities.
Examples :
Nurses Week
Heritage Days
Retirements
Affinity Packer Picnics
Anything that captures the spirit, culture, and times of Affinity.
If you’ve got pictures, we’d love to have copies for the Archives!
How is this useful?
At MMC, the Hallmarks of History exhibit includes photos from The Tank Family Farm, the farm that was on the building site of the present Mercy Medical Center. Not long ago, some neighbors of the Tanks from years ago asked about the Tank Family Farm Pictures. They had been removed from the exhibit. By making the pictures available as a web photo album, we were easily able to share the photos. The family was very pleased!
