The Millennium Memory Bank is the largest oral history project ever mounted in Britain. Backed by an investment of £1.3 million from BBC Regional Broadcasting, it was a joint project between the BBC and the British Library Sound Archive (in conjunction with the Oral History Society, the National Life Story Collection and the Arts Council of England). To mark the millennium around 6,000 interviews were collected from all over Great Britain and Northern Ireland and have been deposited at the Sound Archive to form a unique oral history archive. |
