A second very important compo- nent of the project is the transfer of Mr. Bouckley's pictures from dated nitrate cellulose film to modern safety film. This will significantly. reduce the risk of damage or loss of Tom's irreplaceable images of Durham life. And finally, the Robert McLaughlin Gallery is making sure that the Bouckley Collection plays an important role in its public view- ing program when the "new" Gallery opens its doors in 1987. Displays of Tom's work will be a regular feature of the Gallery's ex- hibition program and the public will have ample opportunity to view this engaging perspective of Oshawa/Durham history. Over 2,000 photographs have already been catalogued through "Challenge 85", a federally-funded summer student program, and "SWAP" (Student Work Assigy. ment Program), a joint computer learning venture between the Durham Board of Education and the Myles, both former participants in the project through SWAP ang Challenge 85. The completion date for the second phase is December 1986. The nearly 4,000 historical photos in the collection of Oshawa photographer Thomas Bouckley will be preserved for residents of Durham Region, thanks to a $10,000 grant to the McLaughlin Gallery from the Ontario Heritage Foundation.
