Abstract
ABSTRACT Using experienced-based examples from the Oral History Program at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, this article is intended to be of practical use for oral historians, archivists, and community organizers. It follows how the Oral History Program has implemented changes to traditional methods but continues to ethically care for their collection while maintaining long-term relationships with donors. The article calls upon users and practitioners to review the best practices in their archives, to listen to colleagues, to follow current literature, but also to be responsive to their patrons’ wishes, honor relationships with donors, find innovative approaches to making collections accessible, and create new best practices while respecting culturally sensitive materials.
