The Oral History Association (OHA) is the major oral history association in the United States, founded in 1966. OHA is a resource for all interested in oral history and provides information on best practices, preservation, goals, guidelines, and evaluation standards for oral history.

The International Oral History Association (IOHA) provides a forum forum for oral historians from around the world to communicate and collaborate.

The Columbia Center for Oral History (CCOH) was founded by historian and journalist Allan Nevins in 1948 and is credited with launching the establishment of oral history archives internationally. At over 10,000 interviews, the CCOH Archives is one of the largest oral history collections in the United States. The Columbia Center for Oral History Archives is housed at the Rare Book & Manuscript Library in Butler Library and is open to all.
