What do I need for an oral history?
1) A subject to interview
2) Questions to ask
3) Permissions form (more about this later)
4) Paper to make notes
5) Your iPad
6) Quiet place
7) Time: Give yourself extra time the day of the interview to get to the interview location and set up to test the equipment
