ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM

Would you like to gather oral histories in your community? The Utah Historical Society offers opportunities for training, potential funding, and guidance for oral history projects. Your oral history recordings and transcriptions may become part of our Peoples of Utah Revisited online collection, where they will remain available to the public for research and educational purposes.
