Over the next couple of months, West Sussex Library Service is planning various events to support the 大象传媒's People's War website.

So far events have taken place in Billingshurst, Bognor, Crawley and East Grinstead.

Users can get to the website for FREE via Reference and Information Online so that they can contribute their stories.

Look out for a special day of story collecting on 7th July 2005. Many libraries in the county will be able to give you access to the 大象传媒 website free, for you to put your own stories and memories online. Ask at your local library for more details.
