We find ourselves living in a historic moment. People of the future will be interested in how we all adjusted to new ways of daily life. The Boise State University Archives wants to collect, share, and preserve your stories about your life during the COVID-19 pandemic.
What individuals can do:
Share your journals, photographs, social media, artwork, videos, poetry, emails, personal reflections, blog posts, or anything that represents your reflections, thoughts, feelings, observations, and experiences about this historic time. Submit your stories here.
