"Working with the SHOAH Visual History Archive" hosted by the RENCI Center at Duke University

Please join us on Thursday, May 1, from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m, to discover how to
use the University of Southern California's Shoah Foundation Institute Visual
History Archive (VHA) for personal and professional research.  Sponsored by the
Renaissance Computing Institute (RENCI), this "Renaissance Bistro" will take
place at the new RENCI Center at Duke, located on the first floor of the
OIT-Telecommunications Building (390 Science Drive Extension).

Food and beverages provided.

The VHA is a collection of nearly 52,000 video testimonies from Holocaust
survivors and witnesses representing 56 countries and 32 languages.  RENCI has
made this massive archive available to faculty staff and students at  Duke
University, UNC-Chapel Hill and North Carolina State University (NCSU).  The
general public may access the archives as well at Duke's Perkins Library, UNC's
 Davis Library at UNC, and NC State's D.H. Hill Library, where special
listening/viewing areas have been set aside.
