Memory Lab is located inside the MakerLab on the 3rd Floor.  Our mission in providing a Memory Lab is to help individuals preserve their recorded histories, whether it be scanning old pictures, backing up old videos or preserving old audio formats. 

Memory Lab is free to our patrons in Alpena County.  Other individuals will need to contact the Library for usage information.
