Greetings,
List members may be interested in the British Library’s brand new Voices of Science web resource http://www.bl.uk/voices-of-science/ featuring edited extracts from National Life Stories’ Oral History of British Science, along with links to around 1000 hours of complete life story interviews with nearly 100 British scientists and engineers.
Of particular interest to SIGCIS members may be the interviews with computer scientists (from the 1940s to the present day), and with scientists and engineers in other fields talking about the use of computers in their work, and featuring both audio and a few video recordings.
