PAE Past and Present: A
photographic competition
with a twist
For the South Australian History Festival we will be conducting
PAE Past and Present: A Photographic Competition with a
Twist. We are inviting our talented community to use their
creative flair to bring the past into the present by reworking
our historic images available on our Flickr page at www.flickr.
com/photos/paelocalhistory/sets/ to create new ones. Use your
imagination to collage our historic images, take a photo of the
same location in the present and merge the two together or hold
an historic photograph at the place it was originally taken and
rephotograph it.
Images will be exhibited online and selected images at Enfield,
Greenacres, Port Adelaide and Semaphore libraries during the
Month of May. The competition closes Friday 27 May.
We need your help to deliver
digital programs
The library service is looking to recruit volunteers to assist with
our digital programs and events. If you enjoy helping people,
including children and adults and feel comfortable working
with digital technologies (tablets, smartphone, laptops, PC) then
we want to hear from you. We offer both small group and 1:1
sessions which you will assist in delivering. A couple of hours a
week is what we require, induction and training will
be provided.
Contact one of the Digital Literacy Team on 8405 6540 for more
