1. Oral histories

   [Suitland, Md.] : United States Census Bureau

   As part of its ongoing mission to serve as the institutional memory of the U.S. Census Bureau, the History Staff continues to conduct interviews with retiring or retired Census Bureau employees. These oral histories provide a special insight into census operations and planning. The careers of the employees interviewed not only include many key decisions and developments in census and survey policy and methodology (privacy and confidentiality, statistical sampling, disclosure analysis, etc.), but also illustrate how the agency and federal government have adapted to changes in presidential administrations, economic highs and lows, and national and international events.

3. Curating Oral Histories : From Interview to Archive

   MacKay, Nancy

   Walnut Creek : Left Coast Press, 2006.

   Written in a practical, instructive style, MacKay goes carefully through the various steps that take place after the oral history interview--transcribing, cataloging, preserving, archiving, and making your study accessible to others.The interview is completed, the recorder packed away, and you've captured the narrator's voice for posterity. The bulk of your oral history is finished-or is it? Nancy MacKay, archivist and oral historian, addresses the crucial issue often overlooked by researchers: How do you ensure that the interview you so carefully recorded will be preserved and available in the future? MacKay goes carefully through the various steps that take place after the interview-transcribing, cataloging, preserving, archiving, and making your study accessible to others. Written in a practical, instructive style, MacKay guides readers, step by step, to make the oral history "archive ready", offers planning strategies, and provides links to the most current information in this rapidly evolving field. This book will be of interest to oral historians, librarians, archivists and others who conduct oral history and maintain oral history materials. See more at http://www.nancymackay.net/curating/.
