The U.S. Newspaper Project is surveying this area of Oregon! The U.S. Newspaper Project: Oregon is part of a nationwide effort to preserve our national heritage as recorded in U.S. news papers. Since 1846 Oregon newspapers have been recording our history as it unfolds. From the Civil War to Desert Storm, from the eruption of Mt. Saint Helens to the world champion ship of the Portland Trailblazers, Oregon newspapers have told our story. Now, thanks to a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Oregon phase of the United States News paper Program is trying to locate, preserve on microfilm, and make available to the public every newspaper ever published in Oregon. To do this, we need your help. Do you have, or know of, an extensive collection of Oregon newspapers? Would you like to see this important part of our heritage preserved, shared, and made available for scholarly research, study, and usage by the general public? Your local library may be able to assist you in determining what papers we need. If you have a collection of papers that we can film to fill in the gaps and complete our collection, please contact us. Your support for the preservation of our Oregon heritage is important, and appreciated. / U.S. Newspaper Project: Oregon UO Library System—USNP 1299 University of Oregon Eugene, OR 97403-1299 phone (541) 346-1838 • fax (541) 346-3485 Email: newspapr@oregon.uoregon.edu Web: http://libweb.uoregon.edu/preseiWusnp/usnp.html An ffM fll opportunity tffirmattw-actum institution committed to cultural diversity and compliance with the Americans with DisabUiiitt Act Published as a public service by this newspaper lone Booster Club met Thurs day, March 12, following the win ter sports dessert.
