Jack Corbut Collection
Bob Harkins donated a collection of taped radio interviews and programs wich were given to him by Jack Corbutt. We were given a matching grant from the BC2000 Millenium Arts and Heritage fund which enabled us to hire student(s) to  transcribe these tapes. One of the tapes in the collection was a facinating recording of Robert Service reading his own works, "The Shooting of Dan  McGrew" and " The Cremation of Sam McGee"

  The Pioneer Tapes
 
  Many years ago,  the Prince George University Womens Club interviewed and recorded some of Prince Georges early citizens. These recordings were transcribed and a limited number are archived. One of our  next projects is to digitize these transcripts and make more copies available to the public in print form as well as here on the web page.  This project is now underway and can be accessed here
