Transcribing Oral History offers a comprehensive guide to the
transcription of qualitative interviews, an often richly debated
practice within oral history. Beginning with an introduction to the
field and an overview of the many disciplines that conduct and
transcribe interviews, the book goes on to offer practical advice
to those looking to use transcription within their own projects. A
helpful how-to section covers technology, style guides, ways to
format transcripts and troubleshoot the many problems that can
arise. In addition to the practicalities of transcription itself,
the book encourages the reader to consider legal and ethical
issues, and the effects of troubling audio on the transcriptionist.
It explains how scholars can turn recorded interviews and
transcripts into books, films and museum exhibits, enabling the
reader to understand the wider concerns surrounding transcription
as well as the practical uses to which it can be put. Based upon
the author's personal experience as a freelance transcriptionist
and interviews with more than 30 professionals working around the
world in the oral history and qualitative research fields, this is
an indispensable guide for those involved in interviews and
transcription at any level of an oral history project, including
historians, transcriptionists, interviewers, project
administrators, archivists, researchers and students.
