I found this text to be helpful for our oral history project. It first gave a lot of background information like the history of oral history. Then it got into techniques and gave a couple of great examples. I only wish that my participant could give me in depth answers like that! lol They were a little extreme...I'm sure that was not their first run through or their first experience doing a project like it. Overall, I found the text to be very helpful. I didn't completely read it until after my first interview, but maybe I will be able to incorporate some of the ideas from it into my second or third interview.
Cool informational site on oral history
