Oral histories are considered historical materials. They are the personal recollections and opinions of the individuals involved and, therefore, may contain offensive language, ideas or negative stereotypes reflecting the culture or language of a person, period or place. Oral histories should not serve as the sole source of information about an institution or particular historical events. These narratives should in no way be interpreted as the official history of Oregon Health & Science University, nor do they necessarily represent the views of the institution.

Content Description

The OHSU Oral History Program records date from 1997 to 2019 and consists of interview transcripts with accompanying documents and optical recordings when available, audio and video cassettes, notes, documentation, and correspondence pertaining to the program. Besides chronicling the stories of various health care professionals from an almost 100 year period, this collection gives insight into the inception, implementation, and conduct of an oral history program, which would prove valuable to future historians and archivists looking to create such a program of their own. Most transcripts are available online in OHSU's Digital Collections.
