"We’re thrilled to work with StoryCorps — the library’s staff and the community have embraced this project on both a personal and a public level. Not only are friends and family coming together to have meaningful conversations, their stories are sent to the Library of Congress to become part of our national history. People tell us how happy and grateful they are that StoryCorps is available to them in the library."

Paula Kiely, City Librarian, Milwaukee Public Library

 


 
"StoryCorps enables the public library to become fully engaged in people’s lives in a new and meaningful way. There is something very appealing in this age of anonymity about giving people a chance to tell their personal stories. The library, a public institution based on individual initiative and self-education, is a most fitting place to preserve these stories."

Donna Nicely, Executive Director, Nashville Public Library
