Veterans Resource Center

Here at Azusa City Library Veteran's Resources, we are driven by a single goal; to do our part in being a resource for Veterans to obtain their benefits. We strive to build productive relationships and make a positive impact with all of our pursuits. In addition, we are participating in the Veterans History Project. Our goal is to collect and preserve the firsthand remembrances of U.S. wartime veterans.

Veterans History Project


Veterans History Project
The United States Congress created the Veterans History Project (VHP) in 2000 as part of the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress. VHP’s mission is to collect, preserve, and make accessible the personal accounts of American war veterans so that future generations may hear directly from veterans and better understand the realities of war.

We are beginning a Veterans History Project to collect and preserve the firsthand remembrances of U.S. wartime veterans. Check out interviews below, and if you are interested in sharing your story please be in touch.
