Community oral histories:  Introduction

Community oral histories

The University Library holds numerous audio cassette tapes containing interviews of local people. Oral history is an important part of the historical record.

At present, there are three sources for our oral histories -

• Student projects recorded by students in the Department of Community Programmes between 1987 and 1989
• The People and Place | Coal and Community Project of 2012-2014
• The Voices of the Hunter Project of 2014-2015 (in progress)
