Resources

California Revealed has compiled a detailed list of resources to assist libraries and other organizations with collections care, description, digitization, and preservation. 

One of the best ways to learn more about digitization and digital preservation is to attend one of California Revealed’s regional workshops or webinars. A 2020 webinar available online, Demystifying Digitization: An Introduction to California Revealed, introduces the program and basic digitization concepts.

Oral History Best Practices

  • Oral History Association: To guide and advise those concerned with oral documentation, the OHA has established a set of goals, guidelines, and evaluation standards for oral history interviews. The Metadata Assessment and Planning Tool is particularly helpful for managing metadata for both new oral history projects and existing oral history collections. 
  • Oral History Summer School: A cross-disciplinary program that offers workshops on planning oral history projects and transcript creation. 
  • Voice of Witness: A webinar series that brings together classroom and community educators from around the world to develop tools for teaching oral history and to stimulate dialogue around oral history ethics and practices in educational settings.
