OurStory Scotland collects, archives and presents the oral histories of LGBT people in Scotland. To do this, we conduct and record individual and group interviews with LGBT people, as well as collecting written episodes. Our archive is dispersed among various institutions depending on what kind of material it is. We hold events or attend events organised by other bodies where we share extracts from our archive. We also provide training to other bodies on oral history recording. In order to increase access to our archived material we have created several podcasts which are publicly available.
