It's legit! We've partnered with PCI (Publishing Concepts) for the Oral History Publication. PCI, a family-owned business in Dallas, TX, with a century-long history, has published directories for various organizations nationwide. This project captures your personal experiences and the impact of Florida A&M University on your life.

PCI is committed to protecting your information. Your data, including names and addresses, will remain confidential, used exclusively for the Oral History Project. PCI will redact Personal Identifiable Information (PII) from electronic files after project completion.
4. I would like to verify or update my information and share a story. How may I do this?
- If you have received a postcard or an email with a telephone number, you may call the number to speak with a dedicated representative for the Oral History Project. The representative will verify all the information we have on file for you, make any updates where needed, and then ask you to share your story about your time at Florida A&M University. Your story will be recorded, and the sound clip will be provided to Florida A&M University at the conclusion of the project.
- If you have received an email with an embedded link, you may go to the online site to review your information and submit a story.
5. Can I choose what information is printed in the publication?
When you call to update your information, you can tell the representative if you prefer any of your information be excluded. You can also communicate your preferences to PCI’s customer service helpdesk at 1-800-982-1590/customerservice@publishingconcepts.com.

You can call back at any time to share your story.
7. I shared a story, and the representative said I could send some photos. How do I do this?
You will receive an email with a link to upload up to two photos (black and white or color) plus captions. If you have also purchased a book but do not have an email address on file, you will be sent a photo mailer to send physical photos in to be printed (Note: photos will be returned if you include a self-addressed, stamped envelope).
8. Can anyone purchase a book?
