The Precarious Oral
Histories Project
The Precarious Oral Histories Project
The Precarious Oral Histories Project is led by oral historians in the Australian National University team of the Language Data Commons of Australia. We work to identify oral history collections across Australia as a necessary first step towards their long-term preservation.
Collections Catalogue
The Collections Catalogue is now available to view and search. Currently, it holds information on close to 200 collections held in Victoria. We want to add more at-risk collections to our catalogue!
2025 Victorian Report
The 2025 Identifying Precarious Victorian Collections Project Report is ready to read. It delves into the findings from the Victorian pilot phase of the Precarious Oral Histories Project.
