Oral History Association Annual Meeting Preview

From the editors

It’s not too late to register for the Oral History Association’s annual meeting, October 9-14, and the good thing is, you don’t even need to book a flight. Although we dearly miss seeing our friends and colleagues in person, and the opportunity to make new friends in the elevator, hotel bar, or coffee hour, we are glad to have the chance to network remotely from afar. Check out the preliminary program. This year’s theme is Moving Stories.

Your editorial team (Abby, Dave, Janneken, and assistant editor Nicole) will be floating about the Zoomisphere attending panels and papers. Say hi when you see us, and let us know on Twitter if you want us to attend your session, especially if you’d like to develop your topic into an OHR article or guest blog post.

We also have a booth in the exhibit hall, which will be accessed through PheedLoop (link and details forthcoming), where you will be able to find us and video chat, peruse our list of books available for review, pitch us your article ideas, and learn more about our forthcoming call for papers on “Disrupting Oral History Best Practices.” And yes, there will be prizes!
