Life Stories

Everyone has a story, and we'd like to hear yours! With this new Life Stories Center, the library and its Genealogy Center are engaging in a program of recording, preserving, and presenting this community's oral history. From its earliest times to present day, Allen County is a community rich with diversity, sporting a proud history, and awash with contributions of all kinds. This Life Stories Center is a place where individuals can be mentored in the art of interviewing as well as a place where interviews can be comfortably conducted. We invite you to participate at both levels — sharing your stories and being a part of others sharing their stories.
