think all of us were a little surprised I'm not terribly but a little I did turn I mean I was worried I was going to have to start turning people away as interviewers not interview ease but I think between Portland and Eugene C. gene is a couple hours south of us it's another big town here in Portland where we have a lot of volunteers that work with us I think we had 40 interviewers who originally signed up which was a large number and by the time my first training was under way I think I 37 and then a couple other people still have to wait for because of other life obligations and so by the time we actually started the project I 35 interviewers who were and I was one of them of course but they're they're 35 of us who are participating in the project and a lot of them just like us had work schedules and other commitments so I knew that they'd only be conducting a few interviews but they still wanted to participate and I wanted their participation and I wasn't planning to do that many interviews at the beginning because I was managing the project and I had other tasks on my plate I think I've done 38 now which is pretty great we also had a huge response in terms of people who wanted to be interviewed so we made like I said to me that list internally and we expected to write a number of personal emails and maybe group emails which only differ from any bus because we were going to target those emails to like write something specific to clergy right something specific to the business owners we know in town and such we didn't really have to do that after the E. bus

couple times in terms of you know so this person was next on the list but I I connected the next available interviewer with maybe the third person down on the list because the pairing made more sense

of our synagogues had to had to pivot to write so Passover changed her and changed all of these events that they had planned had to change and that includes the high holidays so most of our rabbis who are preparing their sermons were asking us if we had anything in the collection related to the 1918 pandemic right so we looked and we looked and we looked and we have some diaries and lots of correspondence and meeting minutes and and things from synagogues and organizations dating before at 1918 you know we love from 1916 all the way through 1920 have not a single mention not 1 and our collection it was of use so and what we discovered really was people didn't want to talk about it at the time like a recording the stories was different than it is now but it was something people wanted to get past and forget and while that may be true for many people of 2020 as well we didn't want that to happen if people were willing to share their story we wanted to collect that story and

about volunteer oral historians being harder to retain them people working on post production slash interview processing I've had the same experience any sense why yes I I really think it boils down to time commitment and nerves so people come to us and they they hear our oral histories they they see the work that we do they read that maybe a friend or family member there's has been interviewed and they're really excited about that concept right I think it's really excited to be are easy to be excited about I think before you really get involved with it and then once you come to that training and you sort of hear it's a process right like that getting in touch with someone you maybe don't know meeting them at their house or the museum more business to someplace that you don't know and you know like how do you start the conversation and asking the correct questions and making sure you capture all the right information and you get the recorder working correctly all of it once you do it a couple times is not complex or difficult but that initial you know sort of getting over that hurdle like well that's a lot more than I thought it was it's challenging that's been something

This project was special, getting to work with volunteers again. She knew a handful of them before, but has built new relationships. People she paired up sometimes knew each other from the past and got to reconnect. For the museum, they now have 200+ more stories and bigger archive about being jewish, living in 2020. Jewish institutions/events all changed at the same time, changing Passover, Purim, high holidays (in 2020). Rabbi's asked about historical docs on the 1918 pandemic, they found nothing useful. People did not (want to) document then. Made capturing 2020 more important, now a piece of history in their institution. Has drawn positive attention, connections, to the museum.

They make it clear stories will be used in exhibits, programming. May remove certain parts of an interview on request, depend on volunteers to do that. There is no ideal ratio of staff to volunteers.

Time factor, people have schedules, and can't connect. Some can not even make an appointment to shadow an interview with museum, which is required.
