It is official, in 2022 the Nunn Center accessioned 2,005 new #oralhistory interviews into the archive from over 30 different interviewing projects. I am so proud of this team and our many partners!

I was on WUKY yesterday featuring the @nunncenter oral history interview with Dr. King. Author and poet Robert Penn Warren interviewed King in 1964, and it is definitely worth the listen. #oralhistory wuky.org/podcast/saving…

I'm testing a forthcoming OHMS Viewer update that adds compatibility with PHP 8. It may sound like a minor tweak, but this is a pretty important update. Stay tuned, an official release should be coming in the next few weeks! #ohms #oralhistory #archives @nunncenter AVP

I love when the @nunncenter oral history recording kits return to us with something extra special inside. This is just a reminder that good oral history interviews do require good oral hygiene. #oralhistory

I was on the radio today featuring a powerful oral history interview reflecting on those who lost their lives while serving in the military. This interview reminds me why we pause today. wuky.org/local-regional… #oralhistory #memorialday2023 @ U Kentucky Libraries Nunn Center

When Eric Clapton’s guitar strap drops the guitar and Robbie Robertson takes the solo without missing a beat. Rest in Peace Robbie Robertson, the Band changed music for me. #robbierobertson #thelastwaltz

You can choose down, you can choose up, or you can choose Pisces. I like a conference hotel that creates a safe space just for me. #OHA2023 #oralhistory

So, Zoom just announced the H1 XLR. 32-bit float, XLR inputs, USB-C, good battery life, good preamps, lots of buttons (I love recorders with buttons)...all for $149 (usd). This recorder may be a game changer for #oralhistory. zoomcorp.com/en/us/handheld…
