About the SLO DIY Memory Lab

Do-it-yourself Memory Labs are spaces where the public can come in and use state-of-the-art and rare equipment provided by public libraries to work on personal archiving projects. The SLO Library Lab located on the 2nd floor, has available machines that digitize VHS and paper or photo documents to your USB flash drive or portable hard drive.
