Description

Save a Story! DIY Oral History Interviewing trains everyone to take an oral history—from start to finish. From how to plan an interview to how to record an interview using equipment like your cellphone or the web, we’ll talk you through the process. You will watch interviews of the famous, under-recognized, and unfamiliar to learn effective and ineffective ways to save history.

This program is in partnership with the Carroll County Genealogical Society.
