| The
Computer History Museum has a way for you to submit your own Fairchild
history at the upcoming events in October. You may also want to purchase
Rob Walker's The Fairchild Chronicles, published in association
with The Silicon Valley Archives and Stanford University Libraries.
It's available in the fairchild @ 50 store.
You are also invited to go to the Fairchild Semiconductor Corporate History website where you can submit your own stories online at: http://www.computerhistory.org/corphist/index.php Click on "Fairchild Semiconductor." This will take you to "Company Details," a brief historical overview. Click on the "Timeline" tab in the "View" menu bar. This will open a chronological timeline screen beginning with the Milestone: Beckman funds Shockley Semiconductor Labs (September 5, 1955). You can then scroll down through the entire document or jump to specific periods or themes from the selection boxes. Click on an Event to open an "Event Details" page. The right hand column provides access to "References" (links to external sources) and "Documents" (links to materials stored on the museum server). Note that to see any Document you must click on the Filename - underlined in red in text block in the upper left hand corner. The site remains a work in progress. Additional input from alumni (Fairchildren), employees, their families, and historians is welcome. Contributions to the "Stories" pages are especially sought after. Add yours by registering as a contributor at http://www.computerhistory.org/corphist/ and sending an e-mail to one of the Facilitators noted at the bottom of the Company Details page or to fairchild50th@computerhistory.org.
