Your Records of Significance
Whether
you are an individual, family, organization or business, and have
records of
significance to the history of the Ord,
please consider their future preservation, in the Kununurra
Historical Society purpose built Archive facility.
It is of great importance to preserve Kununurra's history, with an
ever transient
population,
the KHS is actively
seeking to
collect, original
or digital photographic
collections,
and documents, of significance
to this
history,
from past,
present and future residents. However small your collection it may be
of significance, for example a photograph may give a new angle on
something. KHS aims to preserve and welcome the original photographic
prints or slides, films, videos, documents or other objects in collections. These donated records can also be digitised to a high standard
(at present 5500 pixels on the long side of an image) and returned as fully documented digital images to the donor on a USB memory stick, SD card (or other existing or as yet un-described storage device of the future ;^) - If archival preservation is not wanted, original collections can be digitised and returned to the donor, if required. If you know of records that should
be preserved
for the future, please Contact KHS - ALSO see - Your Kununurra History.
KHS has been actively collecting as indicated by the number of archives collected; in 2016 - 123 new collections ; in 2017 - 114
new collections ; in 2018 - 152 new collections ; 112 new collections in 2019 added and so far in
2020 we have received 48 new collections (to May 15th 2020), which have been added to the
KHS archive. An archive or collection could be multiple documents, maps, or 1050 x boxed 35mm slides (as we received in March 2020) or museum objects.

Although we
do have 125 members, most are spread around Australia with about 20
local members, of whom around 5-10 members regularly attend our monthly
meetings. We would welcome more members as Kununurra has had many more than this
live here over the fifty-five+ years of the town, who would be
interested in this history, so there is a great potential for new members and we need you to come forward as there are lifetimes of work to do in the archive!
