FLORENCE, AL (AP) -
The University of North Alabama for the first
time this fall is offering master's degree program to train
preservationists and archivists.
The TimesDaily reports that the public history program is only the second in the state, with the only other one at Auburn University.
Carolyn Barske, a historian
who has joined the UNA faculty, says the program will train public
historians who can then oversee historical preservation through museum
and archival work. The program will also teach public historians how use
film to preserve oral histories and document history.
Barske says she hopes
students in the program will be able to work on historical projects,
such as archiving historical documents or developing plans to preserve a
historical site.
