The Fremont Area District Library is pleased to introduce a new step in our Local History collection.  We will be conducting a workshop that will teach participants the basics of conducting an interview and provide an overview of equipment that can be used.

We are inviting anyone who is interested to a training session on Tuesday, October 21st, 2008 at 7:00 pm in the library’s Community Room.  The workshop will teach participants the basics of conducting an interview and provide an overview of equipment that can be used.

We are asking family members and friends to conduct the interview to help us with this endeavor.  By adding these interviews to our collection, we are safe guarding our family and community histories for future generations to enjoy.

Everyone has a story to tell.  It could be a military story, a farming story or a story of a romance that has lasted over the years.  Maybe you or a family member remembers surviving a storm that first time milking a cow, times of survival and fear, or family fun.  It all makes a wonderful story.  Were they in the CCC’s?  Or do they remember the Great Depression?  Everyday is an adventure and we all have stories to share with future generations.  It may not seem very exciting to you, but it will be fascinating to those who listen.
