Abstract

Oral history holds a significant role in documenting the cultural heritage of a country. It is a method to record and document the past from the experience and event of the figures that experience them. However, the lack of awareness on oral history collection made that oral history inaccessible particularly in Malaysia. Other than that, unorganized cataloguing, description, copyright and licensing restriction make this valuable collection inaccessible among researchers. Therefore, this paper would like to explore the challenges in access the oral history collection particularly in Malaysia. The literature survey has been used as method to explore and investigate the challenges in accessing oral history collection among researchers in Malaysia. The suggestion regarding these issues as well as the development of the semantic ontology-based information system in accessing the oral history collection should be developed in the future.
