Bob Dylan's vast archive finds a home in Oklahoma
Bob Dylan — Hibbing, Minn.'s hometown musical hero — amassed thousands of notebooks, recordings and photographs during his six-decade career.
More than 6,000 of those items will be archived at the Helmerich Center for American Research at the University of Tulsa.

Chaiken spoke with MPR News about the collection as well as future plans for curated exhibits.
