Greetings!
The Oral History Centre will be running its Introduction to Oral History workshop series this coming May. The three sessions of the Introduction to Oral History series cover the practice and philosophy of oral history, including: what makes oral history unique, how to plan a project, and methods of interviewing; the technical skills needed to make quality audio recordings; and how to create complementary text documents that will ensure your project is organized, archivable, and useful to future researchers.
Participants who complete all three workshop sessions are eligible to register as Affiliates of the Oral History Centre and as such arrange use of the OHC’s facilities and equipment.
