Institutions with Access to the Visual History Archive
The Institute offers access to the Visual History Archive to subscribing institutions, including universities, museums, libraries, centers and memorial sites. Subscriptions come in two forms: full access and partial access.
Full access to the over 59,702 testimonies in the Visual History Archive is provided to 204 subscribing institutions in 23 countries around the world, including USC.
Also, to accommodate incredible demand from outside of the subscribing institutions, the Institute has established the Visual History Archive Online, which enables any user with an Internet connection to access indexing data on the 59,702 interviewees, and provides access to 4,423 full-length video testimonies.
The indexing terms include geographical locations and time periods as well as location names and experience groups. The names of the 2 M+ individuals mentioned in the Archive are also indexed and searchable.
To view video testimony from the Visual History Archive at USC, you will need to be on USC's secured network or VPN.
