Share your favorite national park stories this March at the North Olympic Library System. Listen Up! Stories from the Northwest Corner is a new, semiannual Library program focused on collecting and archiving oral histories from Clallam County residents. To kick off the program, NOLS will join the National Park Service as it celebrates its 100th anniversary by interviewing local residents about their national park experiences. Interviews will take place by appointment only March 29 at the Forks Library. To schedule your Listen Up! interview, send an e-mail to listenup@nols.org.

 

 

About Listen Up!

Listen Up! Stories from the Northwest Corner will present local residents with ongoing opportunities to help tell and preserve the story of Clallam County for generations to come. The program is inspired by StoryCorps, an organization focused on the collecting, sharing and preserving of oral histories. Interviews will be conducted with the participant and an interview partner. The completed recordings will be archived and available for listening on the Washington Rural Heritage website.
