Baylor > Institute for Oral History
Welcome to the Institute for Oral History
  
We believe in the power of the past to inform, instruct, and inspire present and future generations. Through dynamic, recorded interviews, oral history preserves the stories of individuals who helped create the fabric of history and whose lives, in turn, were shaped by the people, places, events, and ideas of their day.
The Institute for Oral History has recorded and preserved oral histories since 1970, earning along the way a strong reputation for multidisciplinary outreach to both academic scholars and community historians by providing professional leadership, educational tools, and research opportunities.
Explore the resources of our online workshop to learn how to do oral history and how to teach oral history in the classroom. Search our oral history collection to discover unique historical materials related to your research interests. Navigate through our site to find support for your scholarly work through grants and fellowships and to discover rich treasures of local history for Central Texans.
Watch this page for an upcoming announcement about a full-day workshop on digital oral history coming in January 2009.
