PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Nancy MacKay has been straddling the line between library science and oral history for more than 30 years. As Technical Services Librarian at the Mills College Library (Oakland, California) from 1989-2012, her job included the managing the college oral history program as well as the back-end functions of the library. She has been teaching information science and oral history at the San Jose State University, School of Information since 2008. Nancy frequently writes, teaches, consults, and speaks about oral history. She is author of Curating Oral Histories and co-author of The Community Oral History Toolkit (2013). Current research interests include metadata for oral histories, community oral history, and oral history in a cross-cultural setting. Her most recent project is developing an archiving plan for the oral histories created in China by the Evergreen Education Foundation. She holds a B.A. degree in anthropology and an MLIS degree in Library Science, both from the University of California, Berkeley, USA.
The second edition of Nancy Mackay s Curating Oral Histories is an eminently practical guide to engaging with interview collections. A comprehensive treatment of the many responsibilities that archivists and caretakers of oral histories face, it is also written in plain, easy-to-understand language and is appropriate for all organizations, from the smallest community historical society to the largest academic institution.
