In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic is an extraordinary event. The crisis is one that is shared around the world; however, the events that unfold are being experienced in unique ways by different communities, families and friends, and individuals.
Looking back at similar events in the past, we find that diaries and other personal histories are some of the most valuable and beloved tools used to learn about such experiences: how people got their information, how they spent their time, and how they took care of themselves and each other.

To document this moment in history, The Old Dominion Libraries’ Special Collections and University Archives (SCUA) encourages members of the ODU and Hampton Roads community to keep your own record of living through the COVID-19 pandemic. Write in paper or digital diaries, make art, create audiovisual recordings – document your experience in whatever way you prefer.
ODU Special Collections and University Archives welcomes donations of these materials to preserve them so that people in the future can know what we had to say about the times we went through. By submitting your materials to the archive, they will be kept safe and accessible to future researchers. If you would like to take part in this project, SCUA will accept your materials in digital or physical form.

To participate, please complete this Participation Form to tell us about your interest. The questions in the form help us document your information, keep you updated on the project, and provide information on how to submit your materials.

Thank you! You can contact us at LIBspecialcollections@odu.edu with any questions.
