This presentation presents the first oral histories in the CRLA Oral History Project that preserve the professional knowledge and unique understandings-insights developed by a generation of reading professionals who are reaching or have reached retirement age after serving in the field and our association across the past 40 years.
The content of the 60 minute research report will be delivered through symposium format and supplemented with posters highlighting the findings of each of the four oral histories. The posters will then be placed out in the registration area for review by conference attendees across the duration of the conference. Individuals will be recruited to serve as oral historians for future endeavors.
