Work Schedule

Using materials from the KHS collections, as well as published and unpublished historical and ethnographic material available in-kind by the PWNHC and the Hudson’s Bay Company archives at the Manitoba Museum, we will research and write the contents of a web site. After initial review of the material available a concept document will be written to propose an outline and approach to the KHS. Writing will begin after the concept is approved. This work will involve:

• reviewing oral history transcripts and selecting quotes;
• reviewing relevant historical and ethnographic sources;
• identifying video clips;
• identifying audio clips;
• selecting photographs;
• designingmaps; and
• maintaining contact and consulting with Lessons from the Land development team at the PWNHC.
• writing a concept document after a review of available materials and after meeting with Lessons from the Land development team, and after consulting KHS Steering Committee.
