Practicing Oral History to Connect University to Community
illustrates best practices for using oral histories to foster a
closer relationship between institutions of higher learning and the
communities in which they are located. Using case studies, the book
describes how to plan and execute an oral history project that can
help break down walls and bring together universities and their
surrounding communities. It offers advice on how to locate funding
sources, disseminate information about the results of a project,
ensure the long-term preservation of the oral histories collected,
and incorporate oral history into the classroom. Bringing together
"town and gown," the book demonstrates how different communities
can work together to discover new research opportunities and
methods for preserving history. Supported by examples, sample
forms, and online resources, the book is an important resource both
for oral historians and those working to improve relationships
between university institutions and their neighboring communities.
