BBC WW2 People's War


BBC WW2 People's War was an online public history initiative by the British Broadcasting Corporation which sought to create an archive of World War II memories. The project took input from June 2003 to January 2006, with the final archive holding 47,000 written testimonies and 14,000 photographs from members of the public, intertwined around 144 events. Many were processed by volunteers, working in local public libraries and museums.
