VOICES FROM THE FIELDS
We provided a grant to Sheffield Land Trust and helped them with logistics:
• To digital copy a collection of oral history interview recordings (cassette). SLT hired Kate Abbott to do the digital copying. Madeline Kelly, Berkshire Athenaeum Local History and Melville Collections Supervisor, hosted the project, keeping the tapes safe, and giving Kate a space to do the work.
Thank you partners.
Sheffield Land Trust initially asked if we could include this project in our Four Town Oral History Inventory Project, and this collection will be joined up with that one.
Now, we are beginning to help SLT get the materials ready for the Digital Commonwealth Archive, and figure out how to get the work on their website (a web developer who can work on their site.)
