AFC’s Occupational Folklife Project Continues to Expand

Posted by: Stephen Winick

The number of engaging, publicly-accessible interviews with American workers in the AFC’s Occupational Folklife Project (OFP) collection continues to expand and diversify. To date, AFC-funded fieldworkers across the United States have recorded almost 1,800 audio and audiovisual oral history interviews with workers in scores of trades, industries, crafts, and professions. More than 850 of these OFP interviews are now available online to researchers and members of the public --and more are being added each month! This blog highlights some of the newest OFP collections to be made available on the LOC website.
