Pararchive

The Pararchive: Open Access Community Storytelling and the Digital Archive Project was funded by the AHRC jointly under Connected Communities and Digital Transformations from 2013-10-01 to 2015-03-31..

"The aim of the project is to co-produce a new 'open' digital resource that will allow anyone to search and collect on-line resources and to combine them with their own media (film, photographs and other ephemera) in order to tell their own stories, make new archives, be creative, start new projects and do their own research."

The project developed Yarn - an interactive Website allowing users to compile and link stories by linking to content online and in archives.
