Capturing Arizona's Stories
Capturing Arizona's Stories aims to introduce Arizonans to oral histories and promote their use in the community. Oral history and storytelling programs can help create individual and community relationships through the learning and sharing of experiences.
To keep Arizona's oral record alive, the Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records (ASLPR) has teamed up with 10 libraries from around the state to set up community oral history projects and collect the results as part of centennial celebration.
