THE Kerry Library is holding an Open Day in its Local History and Archives section on Saturday, February 13, between 10am and 4pm for donations of family artefacts, photographs and letters relating to the Easter Rising.
It will be part of an exhibition that will commemorate the role of the county in the Rising, which will run from the Tralee Library from March 22 to April 30, 2016.
The items will be loaned to the Kerry Library for the duration of the exhibition, and returned to the donating families afterwards.
The library would like to bring together as wide a selection of material as possible. Any items of interest can be brought along on the open day and copied, scanned or donated for a long or short term loan.
So, if you would like everyone to know what your father, mother, grandfather or grandmother did during the rising, call in and be part of the Commemoration Exhibition. Further details from 066-7121200 or archivist@kerrylibrary.ie
