<p>The People's Record <br>deadline: Noon on 26 July 2010<br>New funding for community projects who will help create The People's Record is being made available by the MLA.</p>
<p>The 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games are a once in a lifetime event that needs to be recorded for posterity. Since 2008 MLA has supported a network of projects, led by museums, libraries and archives, to enable community groups to have their say and tell their stories. During 2010 MLA will launch an online space to showcase and sustain the results, as part of a comprehensive archival, material and digital record of the Games. </p>
<p>MLA is looking to inject small sums, up to £3,000 each, into partnership projects which will discover and create community records: documents, photographs, film, oral history and artwork. These will form part of The People's Record digital archive. Funded projects will receive workshops and online guidance. </p>
