Learn the foundations of digital oral history from library staff involved with the Voices of Princeton initiative. For beginners and experienced participants.
The third part of a three-part series, “Processing Interviews and Creating Access” reviews digital tools useful to the practice of digital oral history. Participants will be introduced to software for editing audio files, generating, editing and proofing transcriptions, and for hosting oral history projects on the web. Using the Voices of Princeton initiative as an example, this session also highlights ways in which community members may get involved the initiative’s special projects for the U.S. Semiquincentennial.
