The American Institute of the History of Pharmacy (AIHP) has launched the AIHP COVID-19 Pandemic Pharmacy Historical Documentation Project to record, document, and preserve pharmacists’ COVID-19–related stories and firsthand experiences. AIHP has established a special portal on its website where pharmacists and others can contribute materials for its archives. Contributions can be written or video journals, or audio recordings, that memorialize stories and experiences.

AIHP also wishes to collect photos, videos, artifacts, and documents related to the pandemic. Through the website portal, participants can immediately record their COVID-19 experiences in a text box and/or upload up to three digital items for preservation in the AIHP archives. Contributors can also indicate whether they would like to be contacted in the future to share their stories. Through the COVID-19 pandemic project, AIHP hopes pharmacists will address questions such as:

• How did the public health emergency affect your work?
• How did medication therapy options change and evolve during the crisis?
• How did social distancing and self-quarantine affect pharmacy practice, pharmacy education, or patients and other stakeholders?
• What were your most difficult challenges?

This is a unique opportunity to record and document for posterity the significant role of pharmacists, and the pharmacy profession, during this historic public health crisis. ACCP members are encouraged to participate in the project and to share this information with colleagues who also wish to contribute to the project.
