Edinburgh Collected is a place to share, explore and discuss your memories of Edinburgh.
Join Edinburgh Collected and you’ll be contributing to an online community archive managed by Edinburgh Libraries.
By adding pictures to Edinburgh Collected you will be helping to expand the city’s digital heritage collections and so enabling the Central Library to continue to preserve history for the future.
Joining this site is a great way for local and community groups to make their projects available online. You can create scrapbooks to bring groups of memories together. And if you don’t have a picture, you can still share your story in a written memory.
Edinburgh Collected is free and easy to use on a computer, tablet or mobile phone.
