Oral History: Best Practices
Join Melissa Ziobro for a lunch-and-learn on oral history best practices and procedures. This interactive workshop is geared towards those just starting out in the field of oral history, though it will surely also serve as a stimulating refresher for more experienced practitioners.
Melissa Ziobro is the Director of Public History at Monmouth University in West Long Branch, NJ; as well as the curator of the University’s Bruce Springsteen Archives & Center for American Music. She is the immediate past-president of Oral History in the Mid-Atlantic Region, and has conducted over 200 interviews over the past 20 years.
The day will also include a lunch-and-learn session. Participants will enjoy a meal while engaging in a conversation focusing on local history. Dr. Thomas Kinsella, the Elizabeth and Samuel Levin Director of the Alliance Heritage Center and the Director of the South Jersey Culture & History Center, will join this conversation.
This event is free and open to the public. Seating is limited and pre-registration is required.
