    Description

    Identifying Aviation Photos & Aviation Books (Flabob Airport)

    AAHS desperately needs volunteers who can come into the AAHS office and help with the identification of thousands of aviation photos that have been donated to the society. These photos have been scanned, but need information about the photo to be recorded in the image database. Once trained, this activity can be done remotely, in the comfort of your own home (with a computer and internet access).

    AAHS also has a 9,000 volume book collection that also needs cataloging into the library collection software. This does not require aviation knowledge, but a love of books and the knowledge this library will be used for researchers and students alike.

    Our office needs other regular administrative tasks, such as keeping our membership database accurate and answering mail. Finally, we need to bring our old-school organization into the 21st century and start using social media tools, and can use a volunteer to help us understand the best ways to do this (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc). We have many opportunities for absorbing and educational service!
