Masjid Al Salam's Halalfire Network site:
http://www.salatomatic.com/d/Oakland+17887+Masjid-al-Salam
This site gives basic information on mosques and Islamic schools all around the world. However, because there was no specific information (such as contact and/or website info) on our specific mosque, we actually went to the site in person to set up an interview date. It turned out to be better this way, because we were able to speak to more people and in turn were exposed to various different viewpoints by visiting the mosque two different days of the week.

We were not able to obtain explicit permission to record a video of any of the recitations that we witnessed, it was helpful to watch one that somebody else was able to record.
