How to Get Involved

Story/testimonial #1

“This project was a great opportunity to reach out to other departments and the community. We were able to add oral histories of events important to our institution and the history of the Fargo/Moorhead area. We hope the collection will continue to grow.”

Susanne Caro

New Mexico State Library

Story/testimonial #2

“While we often host traveling exhibits at our library, it was great to embed our community’s story directly into the exhibit. We enjoyed helping grow the exhibit before passing it on to the next site. Being part of a larger story made the commemoration of our event even stronger.”

Jen Kirk

Utah State University
