In this study, we verified un-studied areas and new study in the oral labor history, developed its method and established the cooperation with the historical museums. First, we created a list of the oral history of labor in the past. We also conducted new researches and created booklets of all of them. Secondly, we visited 7 places in the U.S., and several places in the U.K. that were hubs of oral history, and had exchanges to create the visit report. We also reported at some conferences on the methodology and education of oral history. Particularly, we deepened the discussion on how to handle the video images of the oral history. Thirdly, at Osaka Labor Archive, we created a website called Labor History Oral History Archive. Currently, it is clarifying the copyright matters, but it is scheduled to open to public within year 2015.
