The Knowledge Bank is urgently seeking more volunteers to help transcribe Hawkes Bay history/Family histories etc onto the Cloud. We are getting more and more donations of information, archives and so on and are starting to get a little snowed under. Anybody with some computer or typing skills would be brilliant as far as we're concerned. The work is interesting, and you'd be involved in the recording of Hawkes Bay history. Nice friendly bunch of people and we'd train you up - even if you're not computer savvy there's always work to be done with assessing the contributions and other work.
To get an idea of what's involved we'd love to see you at our Open Day this Saturday 24th March from about 10.00am - have a look around and discuss with the volunteers attending - and have a cuppa and a muffin
