The Carrick Overbrook Historical Society is currently meeting for a few hours every Saturday at the Carrick Carnegie Library at 11 AM. The library is located in the 1800 block of Brownsville Road, Carrick, PA 15210. Summer vacations are upon us so this may limit our time to speak to you.

I will show anyone who wants to learn how to scan, size, and input material into the wiki. Although I don't know everything, I can show you what I know. Kevin Barsotti has shown me how to download the sizer for making scanned photos correct sizes. We are using Irfanview Software which is free to download at click here for link to download. The more people we have inputting the better the site becomes.
