- Description:
- "The Voices of Lansing: An Oral History" was a project sponsored by the Lansing Public Library, the History Committee of the Lansing Regional Chamber of Commerce, and the R. E. Olds Transportation Museum with assistance from the Oldsmobile History Center. Interviews took place between 1988 and 1991. It was supported by a City of Lansing Outstate Equity Grant. The goal was to create a body of oral history recordings documenting the Capital region with the following focuses: -The Library would focus on surviving mayors and government personalities. -The Museum would focus on contributors to the area automotive industry. -The Chamber would focus on leaders of business and industry, and workers long left out of printed resources. Although the project never was completed, due mostly to hangups in the transcription process, many interviews were done and have been digitized by the Forest Parke Library & Archvies at CADL in 2015. Any interview for which there is a signed release on file is available for listening online; those without releases may be accessed in the Local History Room at CADL. If a transcript or summary of a recording is available, it is also linked to its record online in PDF format.
