Event 4 (September 20) - IN PERSON at the University of Leeds
This event will run from 1:30 pm - 4:35 pm (location will be circulated via email) and will see a number of experienced academic speakers explore their research projects and what was made of oral histories they produced in collaboration with their participants. We will discuss the final stages involved in oral histories related research, thinking through questions of Transcription and analysis methods, as well as storage and open access. This broad focus, matching the progression of our event series, is only one of the aspects of our speakers' talks who will be sharing personal experiences and general reflections on this fascinating topic.
