Over the years, we have been made aware of the importance of the work we do; from interviewees, their colleagues, families and friends as well as broadcasters, filmmakers, researchers, academic, commercial and philanthropic organisations. Nevertheless it is always interesting to hear how our work is being used and also gratifying to receive notes of appreciation from the many varied users of our Archive whether they be students, industry professionals or general members of the public.
We’d like to share with you, here, a few sample notes of appreciation and general feedback, and encourage you to share your experiences with us, too.
“I am currently researching an article about the life and career of the writer and producer Donald Wilson. As part of my research, I accessed the copy of the BECTU Oral History{now British Entertainment History Project} Project interview with Wilson, recorded in 1991. It’s a very interesting interview full of fascinating and useful information, and I am extremely grateful to BECTU for having such a project that is of such use to researchers such as myself.”
