Tell Easton Your Story
Are you ready to tell Easton your story? Check out your options below to get started.
Record and submit your story online - Using our secure online form, record and submit your story right away! Fill out the form and then hit the "Record" button and tell your story. There is also an option to upload an image to accompany your story.
Note: recordings are limited to 5 minutes in length and your computer, smartphone, or tablet must have a microphone to pick up the sound of your voice.
Check out recording equipment from the Ames Free Library - If you don't have a device with a microphone to record your own audio or you would like to record multiple stories, check out one of our recording kits. The kits come with everything you need to capture high quality audio recordings, all in a handy backpack! Check out this video walkthrough of the equipment.
The recording kits are a great option for organizations looking to host a storytelling event. Email info@amesfreelibrary.org to learn more about additional resources available for storytelling events, including trainings and promotional materials.
Submit your written story online - Not comfortable with speaking or recording your voice to tell your story? Use our secure online form to submit a written story. You can type your story directly into the form or upload a document. There is also an option to upload an image to accompany your story.
Submit your picture online - A picture is worth a thousand words! If you have an image you would like to contribute to the project, but don't have a complete story to tell around it, use our secure online form to share it.
