Digital Oral History!

I am not sure I am yet ready to commit to a Michigan Winter but this project sounds like something I have wanted to do for years now.

Michigan State University, MATRIX, Center for Humane Arts, Letters, and Social Sciences Online, was awarded $319,284 (match: $333,063) for "Oral History in the Digital Age."

Michigan State University, through the MATRIX Center and the Michigan State University Museum, will partner with the Smithsonian Institution Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage, the Library of Congress’ American Folklife Center, the American Folklore Society, and the Oral History Association to recommend standards and best practices for digital oral history.
