ProQuest Makes USC Shoah Foundation Interviews Available in Hungarian Libraries
ProQuest joined forces with Hungary’s Electronic Information Service National Programme (EIS) to make the USC Shoah Foundation’s Visual History Archive available to 40 academic and public Hungarian libraries that are EIS members. The archive features 55,000-plus streaming video interviews with people from 65 countries who are survivors of and witnesses to genocide. It has tools for researchers and educators—they can bookmark clips, save projects, and embed interviews in learning management system course packs.“The Visual History Archive includes rich content about local history in Hungary—including more than 1,300 Hungarian interviews that enable students and researchers to gain further insight into and understand their history,” says István Monok, president of the EIS Programme Board. “Having access to these primary sources will ensure that these stories will never be forgotten.” For more information, read the press release.
