Enjoy! Contents
1. AOM is leaving the USAOM members received an email that set out a radical move away from US locations:
From what I hear, it has become increasingly problematic for many members to gain visas to enter the US. 2. Oral history grantThe Oral History Office of the Hagley Library invites applications for oral history project support. These grants of up to $5,000 are awarded twice annually. Project grant funds may be used to reimburse costs associated with travel to interviewees. Funds may also be for equipment purchases but not stipends. Reimbursement of costs will take place promptly after submission of the interview sound file, metadata, release forms, and receipts. Interviews must be conducted in English and in accordance with the standards of the Oral History Association and the Hagley Library’s own technical requirements (available upon request). Oral history projects must fit within Hagley’s collecting scope; broadly the interconnected histories of American business, technology, and society. Grant recipients must use Hagley’s release form and ensure that any restrictions will permit public access to the interviews within a reasonable timeframe, specific terms to be negotiated. In consultation with the interviewer, Hagley will transcribe interviews and make the transcribed interviews available to the interviewer and as part of our public archive.

We will also circulate all the papers related to presentations before the event and ask everyone to read the papers in advance.
