It is the historical collection of memorable or important families, personalities and interviews or special moments of life, captured on video, audio or in text.

The way things are said, and the exact wordings used by an individual are important in determining the meaning behind an anecdote or a given story. Particularly in emotional situations, oral history interviews represent a lot about the concerned individuals. These interviews provide an in-depth look at the way, the subject was perceived and talked about in a given time period.

It is a powerful tool for recording and saving historical information about individuals, important events, or a certain period in history, for future reference.
