2.55. Envision a Collection
It's the second season of the More and More Every Day Podcast. Join us every day for short (10 minute) episodes to talk all things oral history and challenge yourself with a daily oral history prompt.
Today's prompt is an Expert Challenge! Envision you are a project manager for a massive oral history collection and archive. Build a mission statement and a plan. First, review 3-4 collections/oral history websites from the purview of a project manager. Then, draft a mission statement and a plan for overseeing your ideal collection. If you're already a project manager, write a mission statement or a plan that reflects your hopes for the future.
