Project description

The Dan Rios papers contain an estimated 1,000,000 historic images related to our local community, including North San Diego County people, places, and events dating from 1968-2001. Some of these photographs are well-documented. For others, we have little or no information. So we're asking for your help! Through this project, you will help us identify people, places, events, and/or dates in Dan's photographs so that we can correct this missing information in our archival records.

Am I a good fit for this project?

This project is best for people who have a long history in North San Diego County; people who have lived, worked, and studied here during the years of 1970 and 1980. Participation is easy and welcome! 

How do I participate?

You need to create a Flickr account if you wish to identify photographs. Creating an account is easy - fill out the Flickr sign-up form.
