NNRy Employee Profile Collection Program

This program shares the individual stories of the employees of the NNRy, the mine, the smelter and the general offices through online profiles connecting to the Archive collection. To build the collection, the Archive Department is accepting nominations for the program. The only requirements are that the nominee had to have worked for the company here and a profile picture needs to be provided (if one is not already in the archive).
