Digitize my VHS tapes

VHS Tape Digitizing Stations https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/o0bij3rr6kd5m8b/VHS-PC.png

     We have 4 VHS tape machines that will help you digitize your family's home video VHS tapes to a digital mp4 video format. One station can be reserved by clicking on the green button below. The other three are machines are available on a "first come, first serve" basis. You can always call the library and ask if any are available before you come to know the availability.      We also can help you digitize other tape formats like VHC-C, 8mm, etc. If your old video camera is still in good shape, it is probably best to bring that in plus your power cable.      This allows you to share these digital video files with other family members as well as preserving them for future generations. They can also be also be edited into smaller segments and indirectly loaded into FamilySearch. If you would like to see how this is done CLICK HERE.
