Explore the Oral History Archive

Happy Holidays! Our spring events will be posted in January. In the meantime, we invite you to explore the CDRP's Oral History Archive. Founded in 1968, the archive's projects preserve memories from the turn of the 20th century to the present. The stories contained there can be used for teaching, research, and the creation of documentary products.

We support documentary's vital role in the world and across the university through scholarly forums, technological and artistic support, exhibitions and screenings, student initiatives, and our Oral History Archive.
