Highlights
The library maintains the Dust Bowl Migration Digital Archives. The core of the Dust Bowl
Migration Archives is a series of 57 oral history interviews that developed from the California
Odyssey Project's Oral History Program, funded in 1980 by the National Endowment for the
Humanities (NEH). The interviews focus on residents who migrated to the San Joaquin Valley
from Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, and Kansas between 1924 and 1939.
