Oral History Initiative - Liz
Bryson, Librarian for the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Corporation,
has been
recording and researching the oral history of men and women whose
vision
resulted in the development, design and construction of a world class
observatory on Mauna Kea. These
interviews have
culminated in a DVD that
offers first-hand knowledge of special historical developments and
experiences as they related to their memories while working at CFHT
from its inception through 1989. For more information regarding the DVD
and the project, continue on to the oral history web page.
