The Oral History Centre of the Alexander Turnbull Library is offering workshops for people considering using oral history in their work, community or personal projects. This workshop will be tutored by oral historian, Megan Hutching and Lynette Shum, Oral History Adviser, Alexander Turnbull Library, Wellington.

By the end of the workshop participants should have a basic understanding of how to record an oral history interview, and what to do with it afterwards.

The course is limited to 12 participants (first in first served!). The fee includes morning and afternoon tea. You will need to bring your own lunch, or there are cafes reasonably close by.

Day two: Recording seriously. This workshop will build on the introductory course, reviewing work completed and covering in more detail interview techniques, project planning and technical, ethical, and legal issues. Email Megan Hutching for more information.
