Preserving and sharing the stories of our lives

Each of these stories is collected and stored for future generations at the Library of Congress. Every week, StoryCorps shares excerpts of its stories with 14 million listeners through broadcasts on NPR and engages many others through its animated shorts, books, and popular website. Learn more ›
